Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council Monday, February 22, 2016 Page 6 have for the children which we have just started again two weeks ago. Center School children came through. Our other income that we get is from our quilt raffle and from the Fall raffle. They are both sell outs. Our ice cream social is successful. We could not get any more people in the pavilion for the ice cream and into the House afterwards. This year, because it's our 40t' Anniversary, we are going to have some type of an open house and some type of display at the Ice Cream Social. It may be in book form with information from when the House was moved up to date. The last thing I have here came to us last week. It might be of interest to you. David Eisher, one of the grandsons of the Fisher family of Fisher Tavern put together a book with his cousins on their grandparents all the way down to the. present day. I read it last week. It's very very interesting. It's about -almost all of the businesses here in Mayfield Village, how they started, how theyworked. David did a terrific job on this book. There's a lot of American history in here. He brings American history into how Mayfield : Village came about. It tells about Thornapple when his grandfather built the pond down there and the house and the first section of Thornapple by the bend down to Meadowood. Don Fisher lived on Glenview. There were only 4 homes at the time. It's a fine reading book. It costs $30.00. We don't have it anywhere on sa1e. I am going to take the responsibility of getting books to anyone I can out. We are going to buy some of these books. Whoever wants one, I will get it to you. I got this one from the Library. That Library is. a very busy place up there. There's a lot of information people come to ask about, like the Union Cemetery and other things. - Thanks again for your support for your organization. We thoroughly enjoy it. Council President Saponaro thanked Mr. Muhle. We really appreciate it. Mayor Bod"nar stated, Mr. Muhle, on behalf of myself and the Administration and everyone who lives -in Mayfield Village, thank you for telling us about the book tonight, but also, it's us who owe you a great debt of thanks for all of the hard work you do for the Historical House. You provide not just children, but adults in the area with a fun living history of our particular area. We appreciate that very much. Hillcrest Council of Councils - Mr. Jerome - Mr. Jerome reported, Hillcrest Council of Council has not met. Patsy, do you have any updates on the next meeting?
