| Unfinished Business | |
|
Bricks: Grace had suggested salvaging the bricks from the chimneys and selling them. They turned out to be rubble, however, and very hard to salvage, and the board passed on the idea, noting that they weren't the original chimney bricks from 100 years ago.
Katrina's Departure: Motion to buy picnic ensemble at Three Seasons Gifts & Antiques if not more than $75. If more than that, Katrina will receive a $75 gift certificate to Main Street Kitchens in Hanover. Approved unanimously. Kerry will take care of this. Libri Grant Application: This is a matching grant, 2 to 1, with a ceiling of $1,050 total (we give $350 and get $700). If won, we receive a list of children's books to choose from. Motion to apply for the grant - Approved unanimously. Dale will ask Pamela to do this. | |

Moondance Table: No volunteers to staff table. We will pass this year. Book Nook ad in Observer: Dale wants to place an ad in the Observer for $35. Motion to do so - Approved unanimously. Dale will amend the typeface and send it in. A.E.D.: This is an Automatic External Defribillator. It is a device to aid in the recovery of heart attack. It will cost around $2500-3,000. Jen spoke with someone at the fire department and they thought the library might be able to get a discount if the item was purchased through them. To be discussed further at next meeting. | |
