FAIRHOPE MUSEUM of HISTORY
Board Meeting Minutes
August 4, 2010
The meeting was called to order at 4:08 by Museum Director Donnie
Barrett. Attending were Geoff Cain, Catherine King and John Teratsas.
The minutes were approved, the accessions were accepted, the July calendar
of attendance, and the board member contact sheets, were handed out.
Barrett gave his Director's report. He told of the progress that has been
'made on the Jubilee Exhibit, which has not as of yet, been completed. He reported
that the City's IT Department has recommended an upgrade to the Museum's Past
-Perfect 4 software. This upgrade will cost $495.00.
The Museum has received the Organic School program which is playing on
the video screen that is mounted in the Pier House. Reviews have been quite
complimentary.
Barrett has ordered the artificial pine tree for the back door area, and it
should be arriving in late September.
Barrett reported that he has been having trouble finding vendors for the
digital message repeaters. The sources which proved promising have failed to
produce. A new source for touch screen technology is currently being explored.
Also, on the wish list, Barrett has picked out a new reception desk from the
McAleer furniture website. This new desk would give our back door area a much
more professional look.
Barrett has been invited to the FSTC meeting on Wednesday, August 11 th, to
thank them for the contributions to the museum, and the possible continuation of
these funds into the next year.
Meeting was adjourned at 4:28 pm.
