Committee seeks details, pricing for 25th‑anniversary time capsule project
Summary
Committee members reported being appointed to an ad hoc committee for the town’s 25th anniversary, discussed product options for a time capsule (including reserving boxes for committee and offering boxes for families), and asked for size, capacity and price information for the next meeting.
Members of the Miami Lakes Events Committee discussed next steps for a proposed time capsule project tied to the town’s 25th anniversary.
The chair said committee chairs were appointed to an ad hoc anniversary committee and that the events committee is expected to help manage a time capsule. Committee members said the anniversary activities may take place at some point in 2025 and that they have the full calendar year to schedule related activities.
The group discussed time-capsule options that prioritize youth participation: using multiple smaller “boxes” or tablets (USB drives) so families and young people can include digital items. A member suggested reserving a limited number of capsules for committee use and selling other capsule slots to residents. The committee discussed whether to include both USB storage and a printed photo package inside each capsule, and members asked for specifics on box dimensions and digital capacity.
The chair asked to have vendor pricing and technical details available at the next meeting, including the number of storage spaces per capsule and price per spot so the committee can decide whether to sell slots or to cover costs from committee funds. No purchases or contracts were approved at the meeting.
