Fox Lake Historical Society Meeting, March 21, 2015-- Part 2: Business

We are urged to have e-mails sent of announcements as it saves postage and printing.  Right now, some 140 e-mails are sent each month and 40 letters.

Visitor Count:
 January--  161
February--  72

Last year there were a total of 1,120 visitors.

Once a month, the Republican Club meets in the hall.

Attendance today for the meeting is 32.

Paul is looking for the names of famous and notable people from the area.  Someone who has accomplished something.  So far he has professional baseball and football players and former Illinois Governor William Stratton.

The building that houses the hall and museum is over 100 years old and needs exterior work, especially in relation to the upstairs windows.

Last Monday was the 38th anniversary of the Town Theatre blowing up in Fox Lake.
