Field representative, Larry
Skoog from the Oregon Hist­
orical Society, outlined steps
necessary in forming a soc­
iety and later affiliating with
the state organization. He cau­
tioned the group not to think
of a museum project as a focal
point from the standpoint of
long-term committment with
little financial base. He also
suggested that three points be
foremost in the minds of the
persons interested in forming a
historical society. They were:
define the purpose for forming
a
society; make sure that
there are interested people; and
have a willingness to work and
survive as a group. He added
that the comments that he heard
indicated that all three points
could be met.
Charles Ackley, coordinator
for the Oregon Historical Soc­
iety’s Man and the Land pro­
ject, explained to the group the
kinds of activities made pos­
sible under the funds that Ore­
gon has received under the aus­
pices of the National Endowment
for the Humanities. One of the
activities is the conducting of
a lecture series by the col­
lege. The first lecture, “When
Fur Was King’’, a talk by Ar­
thur Hart of the Idaho Historical
Society, is slated for Thurs­
day, December 2.
The activities undertaken by
citizens of the Treasure Valley
area in forming into a his­
torical society is also made
possible by funds from the Nat­
ional Endowment for the Hu­
manities.
Action taken by the group in­
cluded naming officers protem.
They are Chairman, Horace
Arment, Ontario; vice-chair­
man, Charles Swan, Vale; Jeff
Ford, secretary-treasurer, On­
tario. The grup also decided
to meet at 7 p.m. on Thursday,
December 2, just prior to the
first lecture. At that time, it
is hoped that anyone interested
in taking part in the group’s
activities will attend to help
in determining the name of the
organization and discuss future
activities.
