?? Harvey announced he will be retiring from acting as trail steward for the section of the Bikeway between Bedford Street and the Bedford town line. We will need to look for new stewards there. Terry Gleason suggested asking some of the businesses in the Hartwell Ave area to sign up for sections, like the highway “adopt a mile” program. Meeting adjourned. Record of Friends of Lexington Bikeways votes and discussions. This meeting preceded the LBAC meeting, and went from 6:30 to 7 PM. Treasurer’s Report: Rich could not attend but sent email as summarized: No transactions in past month. Current balance is $1778.73. Farmers’ Market: Bike to the Market day will be June 24. Carolyn has coordinated the schedule for staffing the bike corral (from 2 until 6:30) and preparedthe $2 coupons and FoLB membership forms to be handed out. The schedule could use a few more volunteers, so we’ll have two people there at all times. The town DPW will set up the corral, and the Farmers’ Market will provide and set up the tent. The Green Way table, that we’ll also staff this time, will be a good opportunity for handing out bike maps and FoLB newsletters, if Abe can get some printed in time. Peggy is getting copies of the bike maps. Additional items : ?? Carolyn has written a children’s book about the rail trails that she wanted us to know about. It will be published soon. ?? We unanimously approved a $100 donation again this year to help Fern’s maintain their porta-john.
