The thought having a Town Ball game which the public could <br /> participate in was of great interest as well as the Oliver Kelley Farm having some type of exhibit. <br /> Commissioner Mortensen asked if the commission was interested in her developing a flier to be <br /> handed out at some of the upcoming Rendezvous Trade Fairs and talk to some people about <br /> organizing the Rendezvous. Discussion about where to have it involved possibilities of Handke Pit <br /> or Bailey Point. It was suggested that Handke Pit may be a better site because of the archaeological <br /> dig. It was thought that having a Civil War reenactment may not be possible with the 150 year <br /> anniversary of the war happening throughout the country.Commissioner VanPatten will work with <br /> Art Soup to help promote the activities. <br /> 5) Other <br /> 4110 Salk History Day <br />
