t <br /> -3- <br /> Ava said that we should plan our Open House earlier. We should express ideas earlier <br /> for a theme for the event, and keep the Open House on Indigenous Peoples' Day so <br /> people become familiar with that date and plan to come. Richard felt that it is important <br /> to have a different theme each year. Rosemary felt that the recognition of Ann <br /> Tanneyhill was excellent because not everyone was aware of her accomplishments. <br /> Richard felt that we should contact the Tribe and perhaps get mentioned in their <br /> Newsletter. Richard said we should get the notice of our event into the Cape Cod <br /> Times and the Mashpee Enterprise. Richard got the information into the Mashpee <br /> Messenger. Ava suggested that we perhaps could put posters in the Library and other <br /> locations around town. The Town Clerk did post a Notice of our celebration. <br /> We had a steady stream of visitors who came. Ava tried to have all the visitors sign in, <br /> and she also passed out the information sheet on all the items on display.

We would certainly like to have the recipients be able talk about the reason for <br /> receiving their awards. We are thinking about dates in the spring of 2022; however, we <br /> are still considering doing them at the Open House on Indigenous People's Day. Brian <br /> Weeden volunteered to have the presentation event at the Wampanoag Government <br /> Center. <br /> Winter Agenda <br /> Ava feels that we could have meetings but not as frequently. Richard and Brian <br /> Weeden would like to continue as well. In November we will be meeting with the <br /> dendrochronologist, but we plan to have an MHC meeting in December 2021. <br /> Lakewood Cemetery <br /> Richard would like to submit a proposal to CPC to renovate the Lakewood Cemetery. <br /> He would like to hire a landscaper to figure out how to make it look more attractive, but <br /> the DPW would have the responsibility to maintain it afterwards. Also, there are <br />
