    Annual Report
    From David Therneau,

    Museum Board President

     

    General
    I think (and most agree) that the museum has had a very good year.
    This is the first annual report that I have done. I am preparing it to record our accomplishments, since it is very easy to overlook what we have accomplished. Also, we need to advise our friends and supporters as well as toot our horn a bit.

    I hope that we will continue the practice in future years so that we will have a better record as time passes. Our newsletters are good, but they serve a different purpose.

    We are always open to suggestions as to what we can do to make the museum better and more attractive to everyone. If you have suggestions or thoughts concerning this, please call us or e-mail us.

    Financial

    We ended the year with actual expenses of $24,558, our receipts were $26,333.

    We took grants of $10,000 from the ARCF Endowment Fund. The fun had made significant recovery from the losses caused by our national financial problems.

    We did receive some funds from the H.L. Boyer Foundation, in part to cover the expenses related to scanning the Hall of Honor doctors' files.

    Educational Outreach

    Last spring we were honored to host about 90 students who were juniors and seniors in medical-related classes from Har-Ber High School. They enjoyed the visit and we hope that next spring the school will send even more students.
