Guest Speakers: Delores
Taavola and Eldora Larson spoke on the Octagon House. The history of the house
and the family.
They
told us about the archives, the mission and goals of the historical society.
A
little about what happens each week, how the archives and artifacts are preserved.
It
was a good presentation. I think everyone got a better feeling for what the
historical society’s goals are and how our interests and those of the
historical society have definite things in common.
We
also learned that their spring meeting is on the same day as our next meeting,
May 21st. They have asked if
we would like to join them for their meeting. The meeting will take place at
the Phipps. They will be sending out invitations.
We
can hold our meeting just before or just after if we have anything to discuss.
As
with our organization, theirs always needs volunteers.
They
are especially looking for people who would be willing to fulfill research
requests.
