The participation of your organization can be accomplished in a number
of ways. l.je would ljke to have a "sponsoring organization" for each of the
subiect areas. lJe also need a person who is willing to be the chair for that
particular month's topic. organizations who are interested in contributing
programs, people, etc., to a month's programs are also needed.
I am enclosing an organizational chart to help you visualize the plan.
The activities and programs for each month wi'l I be determined by the
Historical Conmission, the month's chair, and the sponsoring organization
with input from the contributing organization. 0f course, we would like to
have as many and as varied programs as possible for each month's subiects
with a minimum commitment of one large program and one smaller program per
top'ic. An exhibit relating to the topic would also be nice. The Cormission
purposely does not want to set more requirements for how the individual
subiects are handled because this is a communi ty celebration and the different
approaches to the festivities are what will make the Centennial a success.
you would propose that this topic be celebrated.
Participation is the key to success on a conmuni ty endeavor such as this'
so choose a topic and get in touch with me no later than March 5. If you have
any questions, please iontact me or Susan Gilroy, our new city Library Director'
t.le look fortrard to hearing from you.
