SCROLL
Len Lasman and Phil Cohen reported that they picked up a roll of paper at Liten Paper Company for
$11.00. Len Lasman suggested that everyone would be asked to sign his or her name and leave a little
note. He suggested getting a dowel and stapling the paper on to it. It would be rolled out to look like a
scroll. Dorothy Jacobson recommended using different color pens, preferably a gel pen. There was a
motion by Tony Kuefler, seconded by Baylon Loosbrock for Len Lasman to proceed with the scroll.
Motion carried.
