Chris, John, Cara will set up and attend to the booth until 12 noon. Gail, Kathy, Toni will attend from 12 noon until take down at 3 or 3:30pm. We decided to not have any weapons be part of our display as there was some question re an antique gun and/or sword. John has printed the postcards and we discussed how or what we should charge for them. Brittany will check with the City to see what we can do – donation vs charge and/or sales tax. Bob and Mae Spencer will have two tractors for our display. (The doodlebug had a previous engagement.) We will also have samples of our books. 5. SHPO Conference. Chris has signed up for a window restoration class. Few of the classes are appropriate to our commission. 6. Photos from Bank of Elk River Brittany reported that the photos that pertained to Otsego have been sent for reframing. When completed, the photos will be hung in City Hall. The photos that were of Elk River have been returned to the bank. 7. Flood photos found on our table There was a packet of photos found on our table. They appeared to be of a flood involving the Otsego County Park. Toni will talk with Connie to see if she knows where they came from. 8. Miles Zroka Miles Zroka had contacted us to share some photos he took in the area before Hwy 101 was updated. Chris and John were able to meet with him and review the photos which he keyed to a map. We found it very interesting and would ultimately like to display them. We discussed taking the same photos now for comparison. His photos were taken in 2004 and he keyed them to a 1991 map of Otsego. 9. Adjourn. Commissioner John motioned to adjourn. Seconded by Commissioner Chris. All in favor. Motion carried. 5-0. Adjourned at 7:30 PM. Minutes taken/written by Chair Toni.
