Proclamation
Whereas, the City of Edina, in partnership with Connecting with Kids is a vital
partner with families in providing nurturing and safe environments for children
to learn and grow; and
Whereas, strong family relationships are a critically important factor in the
health and well-being of children and youth; and
Whereas, research by the University of Minnesota Medical School's Center for
Adolescent Health and Development reports that the more meals kids eat with
• their family, the less likely they are to participate in high risk behaviors; and
Whereas, all of the families in the community will benefit from one evening
during the school year that is set aside where we strongly recommend there be no
homework, no meetings, no practices and no organized activities;
Now, Therefore, We, the Edina City Council do hereby proclaim Monday,
March 12, 2007 as:
EDINA UNPLUGGED NIGHT
Adopted this 3rd of October, 2006
James B. Hovland, Mayor
