Leo Gaughn, Ray Flynn, Bill Brenchick, Ruth Mitchell, Eleanor
Litchfield, Bill Sullivan, ane Ed Turner from TCC
Leo reported that inquiries concerning April 19 were running
high He wondered what funds might be available to TOO - Leroy
Brown or LBC? Steve said he thought that the Town had used the
Leroy Brown funds for last April 19/
July 4 1976 - Line thought that this years celebration should
have something more than the Lions Club Carnival Leo said that
the general feeling of the TCC was that there should be a "good
old Towne Celebration" If the Town does went something extra done
on July 4, TCC has to be authorized by the Town, responsibility
has to be assigned and funds budgeted. Feeling was that a picnic
and a band concert were the types of things we would like to have
Since July 4 is on a Sunday in 1976, the parade would be held at
bout 3pm - a short parade followed by a family picnic with enber-
tainment by the Bicentennial Band or the Lex Drum and Bugle corps
or both All should oe low key and local The Selectmen will
have to be requested to chabge TCC with the July 4th Celebration
Budgeting is necessary before the first of the year
Dick reported that there had been 130,000 visitors recorded at the
visitors center so far this year - a number which is normally 60,000.

Bicentennial Three consecutive Saturday nights in March. Miriam

on the Thirteen original Colonies by someone on the Us Bicentennial
