<br />To: Historical Commission Members <br /> <br />From: Bridget Bacon, Museum Coordinator <br /> <br />Date: September 5, 2009 <br /> <br />Re: Activity Report <br /> <br />Activity Report <br /> <br />The following are some recent activities that may be of particular interest to the Commission. <br /> <br />I have started locating and scanning historical photos of the Acme and Fireside Mines for the City's mine <br />marker program. <br /> <br />Photos taken in 1942 of the miners at the Centennial Mine (both the day shift and the night shift) have <br />been scanned in response to interest by the public in purchasing prints of these photos. These photos <br />have not been digitized until now due to the unusual dimensions of the originals. <br /> <br />I attended the August Volunteer Group meeting of the Association of Northern Front Range Museums <br />with volunteer Mary Kay Knorr. It included a tour of the Wheat Ridge Historical Museum. <br /> <br />Historical Museum Correspondence & News Coverage <br /> <br />Copies of recent publications from other museums and area historical organizations will be available to <br />view after the meeting. <br /> <br />Visitors Report & Tours <br /> <br />. The LHS Class of 1959 toured the Museum as part of its 50th class reunion. <br />. August visitors: 177 <br />. YTD visitors (through August): 1185 <br />
