BOARD MEETING MINUTES Monday, November 6, 2000 (moved from November 7)

Board members met at the home of Win Keller

President called the board meeting to order at 7:00 PM.

MINUTES: Minutes from the October meeting were approved.

OLD BUSINESS:

• Treasurer's Report: The final report of the current treasurer was presented and approved. Tom will take over as treasurer, and will prepare a budget for the Society
• Subcommittee reports were given by board members:
  • Membership: New memberships were reported, and membership numbers were given
  • Technology: : Tom introduced himself to Liz Kolb who is in charge of the high school computer information center. She is very interested in the opportunity to work with us & provide students for projects. He will also ask Wayne to update us at the next meeting on the status of the grant given to the library.
  • Newsletter: It is written and in Margie's hands. The goal is to have it in the mail the week after Thanksgiving. All Board members are asked to give Pat any feedback on the rough draft within 48 hours of receiving it. He also reviewed the content of this issue & answered questions. It was asked if ads were appropriate to sell to defray printing costs but upon discussion it was decided to pursue the idea of offering sponsorships rather than commercialize the newsletter.
  • Breezeway: Pat will replace existing exhibit with early sports pictures.
  • OHIO/2003: The marker is completed & will be shipped in 5 days. Until GH Council makes decisions concerning sidewalk revisions, it will be stored at the Library. Tracy will continue to keep on top of the situation but doesn't hope for installation before next spring.
  • Home Tour 2001: Ruthanne handed out a written report. It will be provided to all members absent from the meeting for their review. Skip has volunteered to help Pat with research. Discussion was held on the use of Our Lady of Victory Convent House. This will continue to evolve after hearing from the Parish Council.
  • Liaison Report:
    • MC No report
    • GH No report
    • SCHOOLS Lyn Benson, 8th grade Community Science Teacher, will be able to provide volunteers for the Home Tour. Tom will let her know the students who volunteered for the annual meeting have their names on our website.
    • CHAMBER No report

NEW BUSINESS
