INTRODUCTION
This report recommends that the C1ty Councll approve request for a parade on a

BACKGROUND
In 1985, C1ty Council suggested that Santa Mon1ca organize a Kid's Day program
modeled after an effort 1nitiated by the City of Seattle. Tradlt10nally held
in Spr1ng, Kid's Day has been sponsored by a number of other cities across the
nation and 1S usually composed of activit1es designed to make ch1ldren feel
special, welcomed and valued by the community. A Santa Monica K1d's Day was
initiated in 1987 and has become an annual event.
As a resu1t of the 1989-90 budget reVlew process, City Council expressed an
lnterest in expanding the Santa Monica Kid's Day program. In cooperat1on with
the Community Development Department Klds City Project, Kids Day has been
expanded to a "K1ds Weekend".
