Al wanted to know what would they do?
Cork discussed events at each marker; maybe Greenport Harbor Brewery or Cross Sound Ferry will adapt
or sponsor a mile marker. Maybe Mile marker day. Benjamin Franklin, post master stamp, post card
given out from different markers. Maybe cello playing at one or lemonade at another, but different
things at each one.
Herb wanted to know about the town hall marker – how would you handle it?
Cork felt that there are some dangerous ones, like the one across from the Town beach. Maybe we
could do it at the Town Beach. Maybe a week long and not so many people at one time. Participating
from Laurel on the Old Main Rd. to Orient on the Old Main Rd. Will write a proposal on Marker
coordination, budget and sponsors for markers. If any money raise could be given to Historical societies.
Walter wondered about putting money up to restore them.
