be members which has eliminated two candidates willing to be on the committee. Jason suggested
recruiting ineligible candidates as volunteers for specific projects to get around the limitation.
o John Bieno and Francis Stanton will be contacted for interest in serving on the
committee.
o An ongoing search for new membership requested from all present.
• Michelle requests assistance with map and booth design layout for 2024 Art Fair.
o Plan to move vendors to parking lot; possible overflow to band shelter or grass area.
