Chair’s Report/discussion:
MH reported email from RO regarding “Preservation 365" logo – should that be set aside for now?
CK explained the logo was originally a “rebrand”
for the E&O Committee when we began a year-round event program a few years back.
CA: Why wouldn’t we want it?
MH: Because we are not currently doing that level of activity.
The regular
November meeting was rescheduled to November 29th, the week after Thanksgiving.
CK will try to resolve the schedule conflict at HRDC.
CK: Walking tour app is built. Developer will teach
CK and interns how to manage and maintain it early next year. Interns will write tours for Northside (depot. Story Mill?) And Downtown, Bon Ton tours. (Other grad students may assist?
Not clear from my notes – LD)
