Commission members assigned <br />with contacting non-renewing members gave their updates. There are still a few <br />more to be completed before the next meeting. <br />3. Business Sponsors <br />1. Update on plan to put logos on website. Dan stated that he would like to <br />complete the gathering of Business Sponsor logos so that the new <br />Museum web page update can be complete. Jennifer, Lynn, Anne, and <br />Andy will send over the logos that have been collected. <br />4. Merchandise to be ordered. Bridget asked for help from a Commission member <br />to order more merchandise that it sells at the Museum. Sally stated that she can <br />order additional copies of the book “The Walls Talk” for the Museum store. <br />D. Expenses, discussion and approval <br />1. Grain Elevator Paper Craft. Bridget shared a paper craft model of the Louisville <br />Grain Elevator created by Richard Wheeler, which inspired a spirited discussion. It <br />was seen as an interesting, charming, low cost, and Louisville appropriate craft <br />item with multiple uses from the First Friday Art Walk to school groups to <br />fundraisers. The Commission approved a budget of $400 for reproduction of <br />materials so that kits can be created. The Commission also decided to use the kits <br />in conjunction with a membership drive for new members, so a membership form <br />will be included in each kit. Bridget will meet again with Richard Wheeler to further <br />refine the design and instructions and will report back next month. <br />2. Flower Bed Donation in Memory of Don Ross. Funds for a flower bed at the <br />Museum have been donated in the memory of Don Ross. Bridget will obtain more <br />information about the donor’s intentions and report at the July meeting. <br />E. Chairperson’s Report. Dan applied for a grant from his employer Avnet and was awarded <br />$600 from the “Dollars for Doers” program which will be donated to the Historical <br />Commission. The Commission expressed gratitude to Dan. <br />F. Commission Comments and Discussion Items for Next Meeting. Nothing additional. <br />G. Close Fundraising Board Meeting and Adjourn.
