Summary
McKenna Lloyd, Museum Director, asked the Board for $7,200 to fund a 12-week summer 2027 internship at $15/hour for 40 hours/week to support digitization, collections work and peak-season operations at the Floyd County Historical Society and Museum.
McKenna Lloyd, director of the Floyd County Historical Society and Museum, requested $7,200 to fund a 12-week summer internship in 2027. Lloyd said the position would pay $15 per hour for 40 hours per week over 12 weeks (a total of $7,200) and that an intern would help with digitizing archives, managing collections and supporting daily operations during the museum’s busiest months. Lloyd noted the museum attracts more than 4,000 visitors annually and hosts events such as Heritage Fest.
The request frames the internship as both a workforce-development opportunity for a history student or recent graduate and a way to bolster the museum’s capacity during high season. The transcript records the funding request but does not record a board vote on the item in the excerpt provided.
