Different Groups maybe interested in selling merchandise: Mother’s Group, Boy Scouts ets. Hats will be priced soon. Wine for Party from Pindar – buy a case get a case for free. Mark asked if any outlets or local store would donate wine. th Geoff Fleming Spoke about the book for the anniversary. He is working with several 20 Century writers maybe 9 or 10 of them. They would write 3 to 5 pages each and it would be 100 page books. Some topics would be Orient State park, Automobile, 2 Catholic Camps, Benjamin Brittner, Restoration of Houses, and Potato picking. Book will go thru editing Peggy felt it was very interesting. Herb – one problem for me is the vineyards, they are a big part of Southold Geoff said that there have been 3 major books on them. Gail is doing the digital story telling on the same era, she has a lot of photos. Mark wanted to know the cost of the book Geoff believes it would be about $5,000.00 for around 100-200 copies. Will not know total cost until written. Black and White photos and Color Cover should keep costs down. If you want it for summer than we need to move on it now. Michigan is where it is printed. In theory 8 or 10 dollars to as high as 15 dollars per book. Until it is laid out we will not know price. 8 x 10 size but could be smaller 9 x 7 may be perfect. Maybe order a small number of special books (maybe in Color). Need to get everything together so it can be edited. Bob wanted to know if the committee would like him to write a preface. Peggy thought it should be the Chairman. Geoff said it doesn’t matter who rights it. Herb felt we should authorize the book from Geoffrey for early May and can be released in June. Nick said not to hold him up, let’s work on book. Bob will bring cash box and seed money for Mugs. I will ask for Growlers for Party. Walter stated that tall ships party only supply wine and water, Nick said that Damianos will match what we buy Pindar Red and Duck Walk white. Herb would like to know who will be speaking Senator LaValle, Elizabeth Haile, Supervisor, and Al Krupski. Bob wanted to know if the press was invited. Walter let us know that they were invitations went to everyone. Bob asked about Southold local Walter Yes, there are about 100 people that have responded that they are coming. Mark is there any one that should be invited that is interested in coming? Herb asked when he should start speaking. Bob said that 5:30 – 5:45 would be good and he would need a list of dignitaries. Walter let us know that Bob from Peconic Landing would like to speak. Nick thought maybe some information on the history of the Building. Herb felt it was too long in a speech. Gail said that we only have a few hours. Mark stated that he will be there at 3:30. Gail met with Mr. Gamberg and he is excited to create a spot for the Digital Story Telling and will set the date. Gail needs approval from town to travel to Fishers Island and will need to be picked up at the ferry and taken to school and back. Peggy wanted to invite Ty and Bill to Cocktail Party. Mark asked if the committee would be interested in adding the committees name to the Indian History Committee so they can have a traveling Museum and maybe get grant money from Hotel/Motel Fund so people of the town could learn more about the Indian Culture and tourists fill hotels and add to fund. Motion made by Walter Motion Second by Nick Gail discussed the digital story telling at the library. Herb says it would end in Late June. Gail said that we need a place people can walk around and see each exhibit. Walter thought that Gwynn would be goo or maybe Mr. Gamburg Gail felt the school is better equipped than legion. Mark agrees that schools would be the best. Gail let us know that each school has a display one night. Mark though the town board could present it. Bob felt there was not enough room. Nick wanted Marc McNish to be invited and receive a mug at the cocktail party from Herb or Scott. Herb believed it was too much and why should one person be singled out. Mark will get to Brecknock hall early to help out with things and make sure everything was good. Herb mentioned a movie that was made in Southold by Mary Pickford. Nick let us know that the website and URL 375 is available and does it make sense for the website to create a shopping cart. The website would be $2,000 instead of $1,000 but it would be easier to click and buy. Just food for thought, meeting ended 7:51 p.m.
