More than 30 people attended the meeting and voted in the Museum's Officers for one-year terms (Barbara Baraw, Tom Hamilton, Jon Hanson, Wendy Parrish) and Directors for three-year terms (Lynn Baumrind, Ruth Hamilton, Liz Lackey). Jon Hanson presented this year's Financial Report.
For the upcoming year four new Museum exhibits were introduced:
“Covered Bridges of Stowe” (especially Emily’s Bridge in Stowe Hollow);
“Roadside History Markers in Lamoille County and Waterbury”;
"Scrapbooking, 150 years of Art and Whimsy"; and
"M is for Maria" (von Trapp). In addition, some of the previous exhibits at the Museum are slightly modified but still available.
Many people lingered to view the new exhibits, to talk with the museum's Directors and guest speaker, Michael Lazorchak, and to enjoy the coffee and donut refreshments. If you have a few hours a week, please consider joining our team!
