-2- <br /> Rosemary said that we have the paperwork that was submitted to get it on the <br /> Massachusetts Register as an Historic Place which we should try to locate. Rosemary <br /> said that the Meeting House is registered as an Historic Place, and she thinks that the <br /> Schoolhouse is too. She suggested that we contact Sarah Korjeff at MA Historical. <br /> Town Seal <br /> Brian Weeden said that the committee has a meeting coming up within the next week. <br /> Rosemary wanted to know if the citizens will have a say on the final seal, and Brian said <br /> it will be presented for approval at a Town Meeting. Rosemary wanted to know if it <br /> represented Mashpee's contemporary history, but no information is public yet. <br /> Brian informed us that the Old Indian Meeting House would be celebrating Thanksgiving <br /> on November 20t" at 10:30am and it would be open to the public. Following the <br /> ceremony, they will have food, dancing and singing. <br /> Brian informed us that Carlton Hendricks is the new contact for the dendrochronology <br /> work that is going to be done in late November. He informed us that the Indian Museum <br /> is open on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays until December, and the contact would <br /> be David Weeden. We discussed the new exhibits on display at the Museum, and Ava <br /> expressed that she thought they were excellent quality. <br /> Trout Pond Cottage <br /> At our October Open House Richard met with Richard Klein who said we should contact <br /> Tom Feronti of Mashpee Commons. He might be able to help us with transferring the <br /> ownership. Rosemary suggested that we should contact the Chase family, the owners <br /> of the property. They also donated the Schoolhouse. Katy Acheson, the new Director <br /> of the Mashpee Chamber of Commerce, said they were not interested in the building, <br /> but she might be able to help us in finding interested parties in relocating it. Rosemary <br /> suggested that we contact the Assessor's office to find out who to contact about <br /> preserving the cottage. Ava had been thinking about a few uses for the building. One <br /> was that it could be the starting point of the future Signage Tour of the Historic District of <br /> Mashpee. <br /> Rosemary mentioned that the old name for Trout Pond was the Witch Place, and she <br /> mentioned talking with Bill McKay who knows the history of that area before it was <br /> called Trout Pond. <br />
