Bicentennial Upclates <br />Ms. Wenger said the celebrate site will be continued and received a good data base for emailing <br />events and other notices. She is working on a yearbook for those attending the volunteer event <br />which is being held in January. The yearbook will recap all the years' events held. The book will <br />include some of Mr. Dubelko's writings relating to the Stearns and Coe family as well as a few <br />of his this day in history posts. Landmarks did a great job bringing together the educational <br />aspect of the bicentennial year. The commission will need to continue discussions on how to <br />continue the momentum into future years even if it's just an anniversary for a structure or place. <br />It would be nice to hold an informal Landmark presentation at the event covering the history of <br />the structure or place. She hopes the commission has the opportunity to continue to do more <br />educational projects. <br />Next year the commission can start to work on the centennial and uniquely North Olmsted <br />programs which were put on hold this year to concentrate on the bicentennial events. She is <br />proud of all the Landmarks achievements in the 2015 events as it was good teamwork. Mr. <br />Neville said he enjoyed all the bicentennial events and thank Ms. Wenger for all her hard work <br />making everything come together for the events. Mr. Schumann asked if Mr. Dubelko would be <br />continuing to post this day in history stories as he looks forward to the posts. Mr. Dubelko said <br />he has one more scheduled which he is trying to find a nice Christmas story to do. Ms. Wenger <br />said although this day in history major topics have been exhausted the commission can continue <br />to draw attention to the city's history to keep people intrigued. <br />Mr. Neville updated the commission on the Thompson house which is moving forward. They <br />now have an insurance policy on the house and are about to sign an agreement with the schools <br />to gain access to the home. The house movers were at the home and will be submitting their <br />proposal to move the home to Frostville Museum soon. Once the proposal is in place a detailed <br />plan will be submitted to the city so permits can be pulled. They believe that they will be in a <br />position to move the home prior to the 2016 deadline date. <br />ADJOURNMENT <br />With no further business, the absence of Mr. Rerko was excused, and the meeting adjourned at <br />7:45 p.m. <br />David Neville, Chair <br />1-? <br />,/Oonna Rote, Clerk of Commissions""---- <br />Date: l/ A / /6
