given by Phyllis
All members ( Janis , Huberta and Phyllis ) met with Carl and discussed
a simplified emblem that would be less expensive for reproduction
purposes than the official logo selected at the last meeting . A
rough sketch of the idea presented to Carl for refinement was
reviewed by the committee . The committee unam. agreed to accept this
idea as the official emblem. Motion by Phyllis Second by Janis
--unam. The committee also agreed to seek prices for stationary
using this emblem with the following suggestions :
1 . first choice is buff (ivory) paper with emblem in gold
and black
2 . second choice is white paper with emblem in red with
black
The committee agreed they would prefer the emblem be centered on the
top of the paper with: Centennial Committee
City of Friendswood
109 Willowick
Friendswood, Texas 77546
(713) 482-3323 (or whatever no . Deloris
wants)
to be centered below the emblem.
Janis agreed to prepare an article for release concerning the logo
and emblem and encouraging organizations/clubs to request exclusive
use of these official symbols to the committee . Suggestions for
distribution included the local newspapers , City Newsletter and
Chamber of Commerce stuffer .
Suggestions for additions to the proposed projects list included: a
calendar with historical events noted and a planting of 100 Oaks .
The committee agreed that they would like to have the posters ready
for sale beginning the 4th of July 1994 . A discussion was held
concerning possible prices but it was decided to table that
discussion until we have a firm price for the printing costs .
Huberta Mora suggested that the "Womanless Wedding" listed on the
possible projects list become an Anniversary Party instead . This
would allow for new fun ideas and concepts . After discussion the
committee agreed to delete the Womanless Wedding and add an
Anniversary Party to the projects list .
The next meeting will be held at the Uniplex on Thursday , April 8 at
7 : 00 . Lila will bring snacks and Ann will provide beverages .
