Meeting was called to order at 5:20PM at the Sanford Museum by Chairman Best.
The minutes of the April 7 meeting were reviewed and approved as written.
• Old Business
Ms. Clarke asked the Board for a recommendation regarding a memorial and historical marker for
Page Jackson Cemetery. Possible wording by Stephen Wright for a memorial was reviewed. Ms.
Clarke said the Sanford Historical Society has already received a donation to pay for the
monument. It was suggested that the monument be dedicated during Black History Month in
February 2010. The Board recommended applying for a state historical marker to stand with the
memorial.
It was moved and seconded that the Board requests the City of Sanford designate a piece of land
in Page Jackson Cemetery for a memorial monument and a state historical marker. The motion
was approved by unanimous consent.
Board term limits were discussed. The board discussed vacancies and term changes. Ms.
Stinecipher said she had received a letter from the City Clerk saying her term had expired but was
later contacted and told it had not. The chairman passed out a list with the new ending dates for
the terms of current board members. The board has one vacancy and no candidates. A new rule
requires board members to be residents of Sanford. Ms. Clarke was asked to get clarification of
this new rule from the City Clerk.
New Business
Ms. Clarke asked Board Members for advice on the scheduling of a major exhibit on the Auto
Train. What started as a small project with one case in the lobby has now turned into an exhibit
. to fill the lobby. The board suggested she find out the date for the opening of the new station and
keep the exhibit open from the beginning of 2010 until then.
Ms. Clarke told the Board about an upcoming exhibit at the UCF library in February 2010. The
Sanford Museum has been asked to lend items from the baseball collection. The Board members
expressed concern about the safety of these items and the length of the loan. Ms. Clarke said only
low security items would be lent. Also, Gary Taylor will be lending items from his private
collection.
Ms. Best asked about the status of President Grant's shovel. Ms. Clarke said it was still on loan
to Maitland Historical Society. They have asked to extend the loan to February. The Board
suggested ending the loan and retrieving the shovel. Ms. Clarke said she would pick it up.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 6:25PM.
