MINUTES OF THE BOARD MEETING
August 8, 2012
The meeting was called to order at 4:05 by Museum Director Donnie
Barrett. Attending was Catherine King, Sherry Sullivan, Lucille Fracas, and Carrie
Powell.
The minutes from the July meeting were approved as well as attendance
calendar which showed the museum had good attendance during July with 1,895
visitors.
The accessions for the month of July were Parker house items, 1938
Baldwin county map, 2 pieces of jewelry from Pinequat, 4 Edith Harwell vases, a
clay pitcher, life in Alabama book, jug and food storage jar, and Alabama
Historical Quarterly
The Director's Report covered how we had a student come work for us for
two days and our decision to begin the summer school earlier next year because
we had to drop the final week due to lack of students. It went on to cover how the
bus tours were successful which earned about $650 for the Friends of the Museum.
This was the amount made after the bus driver was paid. The black history video
has been approved and Herman wants to create a book covering the history of the
black community of Fairhope. We went on to talk about how the Alabama Public
Television had a budget from the Smithsonian to interview people of Alabama so
they decided to come to Fairhope. After all this the upcoming events were talked
about. The committee for the Elderberry Festival was meeting soon and the
announcement for Round Up Day to be held on November 2.
Meeting adjourned at 4:26.
The September meeting was cancelled due to members having prior commitments.
