Donnie came to get driveway ready for sealing but rain threatening so will postpone that. Planted maples & ashes in my 21st Century woods.
Into Heritage Hall at 1:00 to meet with David Simmons of TimeLine – Jane had ready most of what he wanted & I showed him C. Meyers collection & his books.
Finished copying Carhart letters. Heritage Preservation Endowment Fund trustees met at 4:00 – Eula Rhoads absent – asked Jane Rupp & Phil Fox to attend discussion brought out the inadequacies of our present accounting system & Jane’s efforts to correct them – Dan Wigton & Ken Vincent suggest they act as advisors only & that Jane & Phil become trustees.
Good reports on funds – 15% growth.
