Board of Directors Meeting July 22, 1985

The Excess Baggage Sale wil be at 8:00 AM, Saturday September 7. Flyers
will have to be sent out. Michelle will get out a news release. Soda
and doughnuts will be sold outside. There will be a bake sale and
Docents will give tours of the station. Paul Kreutzer volunteered to
see that membership forms will be available to those who want them.
Betty Pember would like to donate her 1962 Corvair.to the sale. Perhaps
there could be a silent auction. It is a collectable and will be an
antique in two years.

There is no chairman for the Ice Cream Social. Max said he will look
into it.

NEW BUSINESS

Betty suggested we write to Mr. Weber at County Parks and Recreation to
see if we could add the Community Gardens area to our lease as they have
suggested moving the gardens up the canyon. A small park could be made
there. It might be a good place for the Ice Cream Social. If the Society
can get a historic house it could be put there. Jim moved Jean write to
Parks and Recreation stating we would like to acquire the Community
Garden area. Seconded by Max and carried.

Betty stated a letter should be sent to Six Flags telling them we feel
the community would like to see the Newhall house saved and that we are
interested in checking on it. Karen moved we try to procure the house.
Seconded and passed. We need a Committee to go and look at the house.

Shirley brought up the matter of the length of the Board meetings. She
suggested since we are not just a Historical Society but also have land
and a building, perhaps we should have two Boards. One for the station
and another for Society business. Betty suggested we could have an
executive committee that meets then brings business to the full Board
for ratification. Max suggested we have committees that function out-
side of the meeting. Betty said we have had trouble getting committees.

A piano has been offered to the Society. Betty will write declining the
offer as we have a piano.

OLD BUSINESS

Michelle will look into insurance for the Board.

Meeting adjourned at 9:55 PM.

Respectfully submitted, .r ..
