Summary
The Commission reported a successful Time Traveler kickoff with demonstrations and a scavenger hunt at Curwood, announced a Cook Family Foundation grant for the project, and noted the Educating Our Youth Committee organized visits for 240 second-graders to local historic sites.
Commissioners at the June 8 meeting heard that the Time Traveler Committee’s kickoff event drew visitors to Curwood Castle, featuring a tent with demonstrations and a scavenger hunt tied to the Castle. The committee reported that the Time Traveler project received a grant from the Cook Family Foundation.
Separately, the Educating Our Youth Committee reported that 240 second-graders visited Curwood Castle, Comstock Cabin, Lebowsky, and the Congregational Church as part of an organized educational program. Committee members described those visits as part of ongoing youth engagement efforts, but the Commission did not discuss additional funding or detailed evaluation of the program at this meeting.
The Commission recorded these updates as committee reports; no formal votes or follow-up deadlines were specified for the grant award or the school visits during the June 8 meeting.
