Historic Resources Board to host organ concert and patriotic movie for May Preservation Month
Summary
The board voted 5–0 to host an organ concert at St. Mark’s and a patriotic film at the Washoe Theatre as part of May Preservation Month/America250 observances, and volunteers offered to contact venues and assist with staffing.
Rose Nyman proposed several ideas to mark America’s 250th anniversary, including a pipe‑organ performance, a band concert at Kennedy Common, a patriotic movie at the Washoe Theatre and a reception to honor veterans. The board voted 5–0 in favor of hosting an organ concert at St. Mark’s Church and a patriotic movie at the theatre as Preservation Month activities in May.
Members discussed outreach and volunteer staffing: Rose volunteered to contact St. Mark’s, and Tammy Mattson offered to approach the Washoe Theatre. The board noted May (Preservation Month) is the customary time for the group’s special May event.
