the museum and oombering them, Weldon made the motion to approve this., Phyllis seconded

There was some discussion about what kinds of exhibits need to be done, Diane
recommended we have a temporary exhibit area to highlight family photos, and she would
like to have a diorama of Eagle from years ago with miniature buildings and features.
Weldon wants to get photos and identifY roads/trails north of Eagle, and had Geneva
read a letter about old roads of the area and the old stage stop that was near the intersection of
Beacon Light Road and Highway 55. Diane also noted that she has a contact who is
researching the stage stop. Weldon bas discussed having _ DeChambeau, who ranches up
Dry Creek, giving us a tour of the area, and will arrange it for when the weather dries up.
Back to the exhibits - Diane also wants to do an outside exhibit in front of the
building, probably using the tire smoker received from the Cullen family.

another storage unit is not the solution. Climate-controlled storage is needed for some of the

report to the Commission at it's meeting next month.
