Dear Sirs:
The planning committee for the sixth annual Young Street Art Program
has met and have enthusiastic plans for this summer. This committee
consists of Mrs. Porter, Mrs. Powe, Mrs. Pettis, Mrs. Hunt, Mrs.
Lovett, Mrs. Zuver, Mrs. Riggs and me. It is our hope to add a play-
ground director and two or three additional volunteers before the
program gets under way.
Our itemized budget is enclosed for your consideration and approval.
Since I will not be able to be present at all of the sessions this
summer, we divided my duties between the others and budgeted a sti-
pend for each in lieu of a salary for me. I will remain available
for help and advice as much as possible, and will administer the
funds if the Recreation Board so desires.
As you know, in the past there has been some objection tb the use of
the small room containing the pool tables for the Art Program. We
again find it absolutely essential that we have the use of both rooms
in the Recreation Center for the six weeks of the.program.
The highlight each year has been the visit to the Eastern Shore Art
Association and swimming party held on the last day of the program.
Your approval of the budget, the use of the rooms and the pool is
necessary before we continue with our plans. If it meets with your
approval, could we please have it in writing?
Tenative dates are as follows:
Feb. 19 Planning committee meeting
May 7 & 14 Workshops for adult leaders
May 28, June 4, 11, 18, 25 Sessions for children 9-11:30 A.M.
ages kindergarten through twelfth
grades
July 2 Trip to ESAA and swimming party
We do hope some of you will see our exhibit during the Arts and Crafts
Week in March.
We look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours truly,_42s� 06"�Z�

(Mrs. G.R. Wood, Jr.)
