Historical Museum sets annual meeting

Board President Phyllis McGuire will report on the past year's projects, events and finances.

The membership will be asked to vote on a proposal to increase the Board from nine to twelve members.

The by-laws would change as follows:

* Old: Article IV "Board of Directors": "The direction and management of the affairs of the Museum and the control and disposition of its properties and funds shall be vested in a Board of Directors, which shall consist of nine persons."

* New: The underlined phrase shall be changed to: "which shall consist of twelve persons."

Nominations will then be submitted and elections held to fill the Board of Directors.

After a brief social reception following the membership meeting, the new Board will then convene to elect officers for the coming year.

Current as well as potential members are encouraged to attend and participate by sharing ideas and asking questions. Bring along a friend to learn about the museum.

Support your museum and help them grow, improve, and better serve you by renewing your membership in the Museum Association and encouraging others to do so.

The Eureka Springs Historical Museum is located at 95 S. Main St. and is open daily 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sundays. You are invited to come by and view the history of Eureka Springs. "Your Legacy Lives Here."
