OCTOBER 9, 2001 MINUTES
The meeting was called to order by the President, Larry Everett, at 7:00 p.m. There
were 19 members present.
The minutes were approved as corrected. The Treasurer's report lists a balance on hand of
$225.66. Mac reminded everyone that dues are now payable for the new year.
OLD BUSINESS:
The Boonshoft Museum of Discovery has the Cambridge Club on the schedule for January thru
March, 2003 for a display of Ohio glass and pottery. The museum is applying to the Ohio
Centennial Commission for an Ohio Legacy Grant to help cover the costs of this exhibit and
to enhance the museum's ability to display the items.
David Rankin has received many volunteers for items to display, including plenty of
pottery. It was suggested that the pottery museum in eastern Ohio be contacted to see if
they would loan pottery for the exhibit.
A leader is needed for each of the glass companies to put together the narrative for the
exhibit. It was also suggested that the "Crystal Lady" video be available for
viewing in a kiosk. This would also be a good opportunity to display a "virtual
museum."
NEW BUSINESS:
Georgia Otten is on the committee for the Research/Library/Archives area at the new NCC
museum. She reports that recent discussion with committee members has centered on the
storage needs for that room. Being considered are various combinations of file cabinets
and flat storage. To date, one of the map cases has received funding.
Coming programs:
February, 2002 Open
March, 2002 Stems by the Sadurskis
April, 2001 Insuring glass by Bev Acord
The next meeting will be Tuesday, November 14, 2001. The program will be
"Rosepoint" led by the Ottens.
There being no further business, the meeting adjoured at 7:20 p.m.
