5. New Business:
a Morgan Manor: Introduction of our guest were made, and that Nora
Lacey had offered to open her beautiful and historical home to public for
viewing. Different venues were discussed, picnic, fund raiser, and the
tour. Also, Nora would like to be able to display Syrian artist work as part
of the festivities. Consensus was that a tour would be more manageable
and that we would need to reach out across the Committee for additional
help.
First step would be for Sarah to look at the Park and Recreation
schedule and see where it be added while not disrupting their yearly
schedule. Secondly that Sarah would attend our next meeting and a
sub-committee of Carol and Sylvia would work with Sarah on the details
before a joint committee would be formed of member from the various
committees.

Council in March.
