Nielson asked about the William Strength’s status and if we need to have someone else lead the scavenger hunt. Anglesey noted Strength did not send in a request for reappointment, so a new event lead needs to selected. Page 1 of 2 Vizcarra volunteered to lead the Scavenger Hunt event. Herzog asked to clarify the date and time of the event. Since more than half the members have a conflict with October 17, a new date of October 24 was selected for a tentative date. McCulla will check with the Craig Reavis, John Banks with the Cemetery/Parks Dept., and S. Porter with the food truck on their availability to switch the hunt to October 24. Vizcarra will take over the poster and get the information from Stenersen. Updates include the new date, change Friday to Saturday. McCulla will send a list of previous names used in the scavenger hunt to Alvord. Alvord: has three names and will get some more Vizcarra: will review the list after McCulla gets info from Cemetery, and then Vizcarra will distribute to members. Leeuwrik gave an update on the fundraising planner Ann Swanson. Swanson could come talk with the HPC to help advise on a fundraising plan.
