The meeting was held at the Museum on Canaan Street and was conducted by Donna Dunkerton in the absence of Dan Fleetham.  Members present were: Reg Barney, Carol Bergeron, Louise Kremzner, Anne Neily, Patsy Carter, Pete and Betty Cummings, Jackie and Ed Lary and guest, David Auerbach.

 

Minutes were corrected to read the name last monthÕs speaker is Richard Henderson (not Robert) and accepted.

 

The TreasurerÕs report was read and accepted

 

Old Business: Donna reported that David Zani would do the dirt work and Bob Levine would do the concrete work for the snow roller platform. The goal is to have it finished by Old Home Day.

 

New Business: Patsy reported that she hopes to invite John Moody and his wife, of Norwich, to give a program about Abenaki Indians for the October meeting.

 

Donna mentioned the problem of keeping our usual meeting night at the Senior Center.  Because of conflicts, we may have to change the night.

 

Carol has ordered the Gravestone Repair and Maintenance information kit.

 

Donna received a black Tripoli bean pot from Dennis Mason of VT.  Mr Mason said that it came from the home of Walter and Ada Story who lived on Canaan St.

 

Carol suggested it would be possible to send one postcard with all the meeting dates rather than separate ones for each meeting.  Additional postcards could be sent for special meetings or when programs warrant them.

 

The next meeting will be in October.

The meeting was adjourned and refreshments served.

 

 

Respectfully submitted,

Carol Bergeron
