The regularly scheduled meeting of the Bowling Green - Warren County Bicentennial Commission held in the offices of Planning & Zoning, 1141 State Street, Bowling Green, Warren County, Kentucky, on Thursday, November 14, 1986, at 4:00 p.m.

Commissioners Present:
Mike Reynolds, Co-chair, Laura Harper Lee, Co-chair, Don Stringer, Earlene Chelf, Tommy Adams, Danny Whittle, Herbert Oldham, Ray B. Buckberry, Jr., Gary P. West, H.B. Clark, Dr. Jerry Martin

Also Present:
Julie Allen, James A. Dale, Jr. Scribe

MR. REYNOLDS: I think you've seen a copy of the last minutes of our meeting on Halloween. I don't know if they're that scary or not. Does anybody have any comments or questions or concerns? Motion for approval.

MR. WEST: So move.

MR. OLDHAM: Second.

ACTION: (Unanimously passed).

MR. REYNOLDS: Thank you. Mr. Adams has just arrived on the scene and is handing out his treasurer's report.

MR. ADAMS: There's not a lot of activity since two weeks ago I did note on the bottom the three expenses we've had since I gave you the last financial statement. $20 for our copyright on our logo and $256 for postage for the invitations for the kickoff Birthday Bash and then stamps for Earlene to have to send out her mailings.

MR. REYNOLDS: One comment. We've sent in the photo to be copyrighted to the folks in Washington. I'm sure it's moving forward. Any other comments or questions to Tommy's report? We'll just say they stand approved and won't vote on it.

Can we move around to committee chairs for their reports, please? And it looks like Dr. Martin is the first one who's physically present on the agenda. So Dr. Martin.

DR. MARTIN: I've met with some of those subcommittees. I didn't bring the whole list today, and I'm still filling in names of people who head up like agriculture. Someone mentioned getting the history of athletics, and I'm still working on that.

I'm having a little trouble trying to get someone to come up with the history of business and industry in Warren County. Everybody talks about it. But then when you get down to it nobody really wants to do it. So I'm still working on that.

But I have met with and talked to some of the ones that are sort of in charge each of those subcommittees. They stay they're working on it and coming up with information.

I've told them that from time to time the other committees may call them and ask for a little tidbit of information of history of physicians, pharmacists, courts, whatever topic they want. So they would all be willing to do that. So it's progressing along.

MR. WEST: I was in Logan County and saw one of their pictorial books that they have just got out. I think the Daily News is doing some pictorially. And I thought they might just give it to me, but they didn't. If you decide to keep it send us $42.00 or whatever. It costs 39 plus tax.

So I said I want to bring it up here. We had a meeting. But it looks like it would be interesting to go through. Turner Publishing out of Paducah is the publisher.

DR. MARTIN: Is anyone else other than the Daily News doing something like this? We might come up with a whole bunch trying to do the same thing.

MR. REYNOLDS: I thought we had a discussion on that at one of the prior meetings and really didn't come to a very good conclusion about what we are going to do. We kind of left it open.

MR. WEST: The word in Logan County is, "We understand your newspaper is doing yours."

I kind of said, "Well, I think so."

MR. WHITTLE: I just asked about the Bowling Green Magazine that gets published through the Chamber once a year. Dennis Griffin told me that told me that you had already figured out everything that there was to do about that and you were having one done for the Bicentennial.

MS. HARPER LEE: That's really jumping the gun.

MR. WHITTLE: Then I found my old personal copy of the 1976 Bicentennial annual report that the City of Bowling Green published and loaned it to Julie. And I just assumed that you all already had that handled.

MS. HARPER LEE: I haven't done anything except asked Danny and maybe one or two other people what about they thought of it and suggested that we talk to the people from Glasgow who did Bowling Green Magazine. They print that.

It's understanding he was going to try to find some copies from other cities of what I was talking about. I wasn't talking about something that had adds in the back. He was going to try to find some copies. That's where we left it.

I did talk to him and mentioned it to Judge Buchanon. It's going to be a very expensive undertaking if we want to do that. I have learned that much. I still think it would be good enough for the city to have. It's something we could use as a Bicentennial piece probably until the year 2000 and then update it for use by the Tourism Commission, the Chamber of Commerce, anything we're doing.

MR. WEST: Bowling Green Magazine, that's printed by Journal Publishing in Tennessee.

DR. MARTIN: How expensive is the one that the Park City is going to do? Does anyone know?

MS. HARPER LEE: I don't know if it's going to have this much text or if it's just photographs and captions. I don't know what it is.

DR. MARTIN: Are they going to use our logo with it?

MR. REYNOLDS: They haven't applied or been authorized at this point, at least that we know about.

MS. HARPER LEE: I don't know if it's already at the printer's.

MR. BUCKBERRY: The last thing I saw they were advertising six or $800 trying to get advertisers to come at 600, 800, something.

MS. HARPER LEE: If it's going to be available in December I would think it has to be printed.

MS. HARPER LEE: I'll do a little more checking with Dennis Griffin. Some of those booklets, he was going to try to find from other cities. I might even bring some publications to see if it's worth the effort and the money.

MR. REYNOLDS: H.B., we'll move to your report on the Program Committee, please.

MR. CLARK: All right. First I want to invite any that are interested to come to the actual committee that does most of the events, looking at of the events committee, called the Activities Committee. They're meeting next Wednesday at eight o'clock at the public library.

We had an awful lot of events that were needing more discussion with the people that submit them. They are either just broad ideas or ideas that we really couldn't put together and were not ideas as clean who is say, The Speakers Bureau, that you know, was very clean.

So we have sent each of those people a little form to try to help them think and detail out their thoughts and invited them to come and present, discuss with the committee.

So hopefully we can bring to conclusion a lot of the items that we have got outstanding by getting those people to either show up and tell us if they really mean it or was this just a quick thought and throwing it out there for somebody else to do.

On the actual Activity Committee side that Julie is chairing probably everything on this little sheet describes what she's been doing. I know a lot of their work has been on the Birthday Bash and finalizing that. That's on schedule and is going to happen.

MR. REYNOLDS: Thank you.

MR. CLARK: The wind ensemble, did we actually approve that last time?

MR. REYNOLDS: Let me bring that up. Eddy Barber called and indicated that his committee, Funding & Finance Committee, had approved a $250 stipend to the Cumberland Wind Ensemble. Now that needs to be officially voted on by us. But let me tell you what we've done and maybe where we might want to go.

I talked with Jeff Reed who is a performer in the Cumberland Wind Ensemble. They are scheduled, I think, for December 13th at the Capitol Arts Center. At our last meetings they had not come to the Funding & Finance Committee with a specific monetary request.

That's what we directed them to do is tell the Funding & Finance committee how much you want. They came back and said $250. I had talked to Mr. Reed. And he said, "Mike, that $250 if the Commission approves us, is for Mr. Charles Smith to write the score of the song that will be what well use as our" -- I'm sorry I'm not musically inclined, "but our score for our events. And whether the Bicentennial Commission wants to take it and use it any further, that's up to them."

But in any event I think we need to formally approve the Funding & Finance Committee's recommendation of the $250 stipend. That's what Mr. Reed says that is being used for.

MR. BUCKBERRY: So move.

MR. WHITTLE: Second.

ACTION: (Unanimously passed).

MR. REYNOLDS: At our last meeting we made it specifically clear we did not want to just come out and underwrite people's events.

But rather if a group coming to the Funding & Finance Committee or the Program Committee with an idea they have got approved and they needed some help, then that's the Funding & Finance Committee's decision to recommend to us what they want to do. It's part of why they're there. Thank you all very much.

MR. WHITTLE: One more of those, H.B., that your report that I read for you at the last meeting talked about these posters. You indicated that it needed also to go to the Funding Committee. Did they --

MR. CLARK: Eddie and I didn't discuss the posters in particular.

MS. ALLEN: In terms of Funding & Finance, what I did is after the meeting I called Bill and Jill back and I told them the situation. Then basically it was like if we want to do this event, this type of activity, fund raising commemorative item type thing, then probably the best way to do it is get a group like the A.M. Rotary clubs is doing the pins; to get a group like that to take it on as their project and just give us a percentage back on the profits.

So he said, "Okay. Sure. Fine," blah, blah, blah. Then also he went and talked to Eddie, and then Eddie and I talked again.

Then I went to Duncan McKenzie, the director of the Capitol Alliance and said, "This could be considered a visual art. So this might tie in with you all wanting to be involved in the Bicentennial. You all have links with some very neat supporters that are also corporations in this community; that they can market the visual art type poster in their facilities," and that sort of thing.

Duncan was very excited about it. The Capitol Arts Alliance board, we're having our executive board, we are meeting Monday night.

But Duncan is very excited about it. Marsha who is in charge of the Gallery was interested in it. So if everything is approved Monday night the Capitol Arts Alliance might be taking that on as their project going in contract with Bill and Jill. Then we would just get a 20 percent commission or 20 percent back on the profits.

MR. REYNOLDS: Very good. Anything else then, Julie, or anybody else question for Julie's report.

MS. ALLEN: Our third corporate sponsor, we had two of them at the last meeting. The third one confirmed the next day. Commonwealth Health Corporation put in 8,000. We have a total of $24,000 for our kickoff events, and that will cover the Birthday Bash. So every ticket that is sold for the Birthday Bash is on automatic contribution to the Commission.

MR. REYNOLDS: Thanks, Julie. We have Mr. Hardcastle's Publicity & Promotions Committee report that was handed out earlier.

MS. CHELF: I prepared this in his absence. I might mention since we met yesterday I've had further discussion with the Engineering Technology Club from Western. They were going to a do to float for us.

They have ideas and they're going to come on Monday morning to talk with us more about that. They had some question about how much money they might be able to spend. I invited Danny to come to the meeting. He suggested that he might be available to help with that.

We listened to their plan and sort of saw what they have in mind. And then I think with some latitude I think they have some neat plans in mind. We'll try not to break the budget. But since they're willing to do this and really on short order, too, I think it's a wonderful thing.

We'll keep you posted on that. We're looking for a flatbed wagon, tractor, that sort of thing to build the float on and pull it through the parade. And we'll be talking to you more about your participation. There can be people on this I'm sure. I don't know if that club wants to be, if they want to be the costume people on that float or if they want some of us to participate.

We also talked last time about members of this Commission maybe walking along behind either passing out information or, you know, whatever we want to do. So whatever you might want to do. To participate in that would be good. I think we voted that we would want to participate in some way with that parade.

The other thing that we talked about yesterday that may have a bearing on that, too, Charlie brought up some of the additional promotional type items for the Bicentennial like bumper stickers and just stickers, rather cheap stickers for school children and everything.

We bypassed on the bumper sticker idea. I don't know if that just was not catching on with people or they didn't want to get into it at this time.

But the stickers for school children did receive some -- well, people were excited about that more so. And we decided to go ahead and have about 10,000 of those stickers printed up. It will be basically the logo for the Bicentennial.

And we were thinking in terms that would be one item that would be passed out to the crowds at the parade, you know, people walking behind. Again whether that's us or other members of that engineering tech club would want to do that as well.

But that would be one thing we could hand out. It would be something that the children could take away from the parade and a reminder of the Bicentennial. So that was kind of a development late breaking.

The other thing we talked about sometime ago and sort of carries out a suggestion that Ray had about having maybe the information from the Bicentennial Moments being developed used, maybe read during the parade.

We took that a ways further and thought it would be kind of neat if we had someone there who knew a lot about Warren County history to be a commentator and as occasions arose during the parade interjecting information about the Bicentennial or about Warren County history.

We found out yesterday that TKR Cable gave permission to do that, but we might talk with the Jaycee's. I file like that would be a routine thing.

So it's here in this little rundown of notes. We were wondering, Ray, if we get that promotion, if you would be little willing and available to be that individual.

MR. BUCKBERRY: I'll be glad to work up things for them.

MS. CHELF: You need to be on camera, too.

MR. BUCKBERRY: I'll do whatever you want me to.

MS. CHELF: December 7th.

DR. MARTIN: Did you all discuss about covering the parade photographically? If we're going to do something like this, we would went to have some pictures of the parade. I think the newspaper will take some pictures. But could we use theirs?

We need to have pictures of the parade and our float.

MR. ADAMS: The Jaycee's photograph it with John Carman.

MR. WHITTLE: Could we have access to those photos without a charge for use later?

MR. ADAMS: I'll bring that up.

MR. REYNOLDS: Thank you very much Earlene. Romanza, we'll move over to you. Volunteer Personnel Committee, please.

MS. JOHNSON: This group has been addressing envelopes for the invocation that you saw that went around. And now the invitations have been printed, why, we're ready to do the stuffing of those. So we have use for volunteers this week for that.

DR. MARTIN: Who will those go to?

MS. JOHNSON: We have had a list from the Mayor and the list from the judge and then we used Chamber of Commerce directors and ambassadors and officers and many of the businesses and state legislators and Senators, members of the Home Builders Association, the realtor associations, Capitol Arts Alliance board, Western, department and different people.

If any of you have names that you think we might not have included, then you may give those to us, and we'll double check them.

MR. REYNOLDS: Can I ask, could or should we place an ad in the Daily News putting that invitation in the ad? In other words if we are taking city and county funds to put on this Commission surely there will be somebody -- I mean we may get complaints that the price is too high or it's out of sight or whatever the complaint is; but at least make the public aware.

Surely with public money we ought to at least not get the criticism that somebody wasn't invited.

DR. MARTIN: That's what I was wondering. There will be somebody that says, "I didn't get invited."

MS. ALLEN: You also have to remember that we have 10,000 brochures that there's information in there about it that are being distributed as well as the fact that like in tonight's paper I told them, you know, information about it.

If you want an invitation, call our office. Then we'll be glad to send the invitations out.

As well as on the Community Access Channel I have put a message, give one to Linda at the city and I've put one on ours that, for reservations and information about the Birthday Bash or any of the free kickoff events to please contact us; and gave both phone numbers. So that is available, too.

MS. JOHNSON: I think the idea of an ad in the paper would be excellent.

MS. ALLEN: If we put an ad in the paper, can I suggest also that we do an ad for all the other events that are free and not just an ad for this paid event? This is the only paid event. Well, except for the concert now. All we're having is just a paid event; that we do an ad for all of the events.

MR. WEST: Are they willing to free gratis these ads?

MS. ALLEN: I don't know if they're willing; maybe have some entity like the Charles M. Moore Insurance Agency sponsor the ad.

MR. WEST: Here's what happens. A lot of people pay the Daily News for their advertising, and then they go to the radio station and call Berry and Wes and want free ads. Then we go to Clyde at WBKO and say, "Will you run these PSA's for us?" Let's see if we can get some advertising free from the Daily News.

MR. BUCKBERRY: I think we recognize the need for it. We should let give it to Charlie's committee and let him handle it however he sees fit. He can be convincing.

MS. ALLEN: As far as a list of all the kickoff events I have copy of something that I've been distributing to our corporate sponsors and people like that that I've been pushing for things. This is, I can just give them a copy of this thing I have. That's a list of the kickoff events weeks activities.

MR. REYNOLDS: Very good. Anything else, Romanza?

MS. JOHNSON: That's all at this time. Last month you all were going to think about and tell me if you want help with the Christmas parade, the ones of you that weren't here. We have had a request for some volunteers for that. So after the meeting today you can tell me if your name can be included on that.

MR. REYNOLDS: Thank you. Moving to the new business section Earlene has an item there. Earlene, do you want to lead us off on your request?

MS. CHELF: Everyone on the Commission and a number of people who have been involved in planning the Birthday Bash have put a tremendous amount of time and effort. The suggestion was is that that group of people be entitled to have tickets to this event at half price. It would be $50 to the Commission members.

The five nor six individuals who have put a tremendous amount of time and effort and in planning; that means that $50 per person it might enable some of us to bring a husband or a wife along where we might not otherwise. But that was a suggestion we thought we would bring it up for discussion and see what you thought.

MR. REYNOLDS: Who wants to tackle that one?

MR. WEST: I'm for it. I think if it opens the opportunity for people to put the time in that made this happen, I don't think that we should feel bad about something like this.

DR. MARTIN: Were you on that committee?

MR. WEST: No.

MS. CHELF: The suggestion is this Commission and that involves the committee chairs as well and then these four or five individuals who have been really involved with that project.

MR. REYNOLDS: Anybody have a different view?

MR. BUCKBERRY: I don't know. I guess I'm sensitive to us giving ourselves a price break when we are asking other people to pay the full tariff. Those who are instrumental it would suit me better to give them a ticket. But I don't know. I guess that's just my gut reaction to giving ourselves a break when we're asking the general public to pay a different price.

MR. CLARK: I would tend to agree with Ray. As far as the people who have really worked hard, besides Julie getting it done, you know, that would almost be a benefit of that labor. I'd feel funny voting a discount for myself.

MR. REYNOLDS: I'm hearing this and tend to agree with what H.B. and Ray are saying. Why couldn't we do it this way. This is a suggestion.

If people have done these kind of things, whomever they may be, they ought to be event staff who should not pay anyway. I'm not sure who fits in that category, but I'm thinking about maybe Julie or Lena or some people that are assigned to do this for their job. They're event staff. I'm not sure that's the correct term but that's what.

MR. BUCKBERRY: I think that's a good term.

MR. WEST: I'm basing my comments on the Hilltopper Athletic Foundation Auction. People would work literally for months and work and work and burn up gas and do things extra. And we came down to the auction that night, we gave a half price ticket to what. We based it on that; that if someone complains that somebody serving on the committee and did extra hours, I know how long -- some of you have worked far more than I have. It's another job. You've taken on another job.

MR. BUCKBERRY: I think those that did, that's perfectly appropriate.

MR. REYNOLDS: Whoever is putting on the event should be able to attend.

MR. BUCKBERRY: Particularly when we're sitting there and the staff has gotten to the point that every ticket is full 100 percent contribution I think certainly ought to be given a courtesy admission. I think like the gentleman with the logo, wasn't that his understanding that he be invited free of charge to everything.

MS. CHELF: Give a free ticket to the people who have helped Julie tremendously.

MR. REYNOLDS: They don't need a ticket. They're working the event.

MR. BUCKBERRY: Whether they're on the Commission or not. That would include Commission members that have been involved directly in that.

MR. REYNOLDS: Whoever is and I don't know how to say this. But Julie or whoever has putting the event on, Julie, Stan, whoever they think are event staff that have helped them, that's who -- they're working that event and they're --

MS. HARPER LEE: That's a good approach.

MR. BUCKBERRY: If you're event staff you get in without the necessity of buying one, I think. That will help those that are putting it on.

MR. REYNOLDS: Anything else on that item before we go back to old business?

MR. WEST: Does that need to be put in the form of a motion? We probably need see form of motion.

MR. BUCKBERRY: If we ask someone to hold their hand up who was really in charge of looking at the whole thing, who would that be? Julie. I move that Julie compile a list of persons who would be admitted to the Birthday Bash without charge on the basis that she considers them to have been event personnel.

MR. ADAMS: Second.

ACTION: (Unanimously passed).

MR. REYNOLDS: Okay. Old business.

MS. SWEETEN: The driving tour was pushed back. Karen is not going to be able to do the map for us until January. But I think Bowling Green Vocational School is actually going to do the printing.

MS. ALLEN: I've passed out our report today. So I'd be glad to answer any questions. The brochures will be done at the printers next week. We're ready to go on distribution for that brochure. The final revision for the script for the video is in the works. The final revision should be done here shortly for the promotional video.

MR. WEST: Ray will be glad to know that the Duncan Hines Festival is moving along nicely as part of the Bicentennial. The Junior Woman's Club is really on top of this. They're bringing more people into the mix and right now we've cut off adding any more events to that, because we're full with that.

Danny, have you talked to Buddy Adams at all?

MR. WHITTLE: No, not yet.

MR. WEST: I'm on the Operation Pride board also, and at our board meeting we talked about the possibility. And there was really some excitement about the fireworks coming there and utilizing the landfill area and the garden walking tour and all of that.

Buddy Adams or somebody has cleaned that whole hill off. I don't know the last time you went by the Baker Hill area. But he's really cleaned it off. It looks better than I've seen it in years just about 45 minutes ago.

MS. CHELF: Just that Julie and I need to get with you pretty soon to talk about some of the things we need for costumes for Birthday Bash or for the reenactment. We borrowed five, six box loads of costuming from Land Between the Lakes. We need additional help with those. We need to do that pretty soon.

MS. ALLEN: We drove through tornadoes and everything last week. These costumes are being loaned. We have to take them back before Christmas. We have got a deal through the museum at Land Between the Lakes, the homestead place to loan to the Kentucky Museum slash Bicentennial Commission.

We're just going to do need a few accessories. That is going to be our payment. The accessories that we make here in town for four costumes that they have loaned us, we're going to give them on those accessories to use at their museum for future purposes.

We thought we could give them a gift basket of fruit. They spent a lot of time with us Thursday, took out of their schedule about two hours. This is a home place of 1850's at Land Between the Lakes, Golden Pond Interpretative Center. It's a living history interpretation.

MR. BUCKBERRY: I've been trying to prod along some folks to see if they can get to the point of making a submission on proposed event and things are moving on. I'll report to you.

Dr. Martin had requested Charles Bryant to do a history of literally clubs. I've extent him some information. And on that possible event John Grise and I have come up with a list of literary clubs that are currently in the county. We've talked to someone in the each one of them.

What our plan is to send a letter to all of those clubs asking them if they know of other clubs and giving them a list and asking if they're interested in an event wherein all literally clubs in Warren County would appear at the same time, men, women, so forth.

And if so we're setting a meeting to ask that a liaison come. When that person comes from the clubs that are interested -- and all of them have been so far, what do you want? Luncheon? Dinner? Spouse, no spouse? Spring, summer, fall. Events, no events. Exhibits space, no exhibit space.

And come up with something and do it and then we'll get that in at the same time. One suggestion has been made that we try to get a historical marker in place for what would be a male literary figure out of the county and a female. We've checked on the cost with the Commission representative. It will be about $2,400. We think that should paid for by the literary clubs.

Maybe have an event and unveil these, that would be put in, like the regular historical markers and whatever would be a place to put them much.

And so we are pushing in that direction to finally get to the point of submitting something there.

There is a new Civil War journal for Kentucky. Volume 1 Number 1 is out there. It's going to be a monthly publication dealing with the Civil War in Kentucky and that's it.

I will try to see if I can get in touch with them and see if next year they might do an edition that's Civil War in Warren County, Kentucky; or what would be appropriate for this part of the state, not just Warren.

Photography, many of you remember they did a Day In The Life Of America where all of these photographers had to shoot their pictures in one given day. And then they had the book. They did it in other states. North Carolina did one. They had to change the name by reason of copyright problems.

But anyway, here's the date. You go out and shoot all day long. You got to shoot it that day. And then we'll leave the big contest and so.

Well, I was interested in whether or not we had enough folks out there to do a day in Warren County. And have some equipment prizes perhaps from manufacturers, whatever.

But, anyway, talked to Tommy Hughes. He thinks it will be fine. Talked to George Sitz who is the president of the photography society here now. And he says, "Oh, yeah. I think we've got enough interest."

He mentioned that they have committed to do -- I forget the number 24, 42, whatever, of the oldest churches in black and white. Now I don't know who's working with that.

In Knoxville the other day I picked up -- they were $5.00 -- calendars put out by the library in Knoxville, beautiful photographs for each month. I suggested to the library, I said, If nobody else is doing a calendar maybe you could do one with some photography and maybe you could get all of the known Bicentennial events printed in there together with the recurring events off the calendar for the city and the county and get that in a calendar and sell that. So I haven't heard back. I didn't know if anybody else is doing that.

One thing I will pursue, unless somebody thinks it's not worth pursuing, the Bicentennial train has its last day in Nashville tomorrow for their Bicentennial year. I don't think we can do a train, but I got to thinking could we get the city or the county to make available a bus, big old school bus, gut if seats outs of it, put Bicentennial displays in it, get these people who do the mural do the outside of the bus.

City flag, county flag. During the Bicentennial it goes to every school. You're having a church reunion, the bus goes there. Get it out there.

I'll talk to Lindell McCoy or John Settle and see if that's feasible as they see it. Then we can think about that.

He would like to do something nice. So keep this in mind during the Bicentennial year.

What does the Smithsonian do?

What the hell do you mean what do they do?

He said I'll pay for the plane tickets. Let's go up there and see in they have something really nice that could come down to Warren county and well, wait a minute. But he's interested.

There's one fellow out there something comes along and he's really interested in, I think he would finance it.

Another person came to me and said, "I would be very interested in making a contribution for a piece of public art."

MS. JOHNSON: Don't forget the name.

MS. ALLEN: Maybe the art piece or something nice -- he's the artist that does painting to music, and he does it in an auditorium. It's almost like a concert, but it's painting to music. He's given a theme. It's like a canvas the size of a wall.

He's given this theme. While all of this music is going on this man write up there in front of you is doing an art piece. It takes about an hour, about an hour long concert and art piece. It is then left to whatever the project is that sponsored it.

I checked into it for the Capitol. He's about $10,000. He's an one man mural painter.

MR. WEST: Does the front row need to wear raincoats?

DR. MARTIN: Are we going to give out any of Bicentennial certificates of appreciation for people that work and do things that they frame and hang on their wall?

MS. HARPER LEE: We talked about that at an earlier meeting. I don't think we ever got back to it. But one of the very first meetings we talked about doing something like that.

When we were talking about what the logo would look like. We talked about certificate of appreciation. That's a good idea, too.

MR. REYNOLDS: Do we have a motion to adjourn?

MR. BUCKBERRY: So move.
