The Clerk was asked to write a letter to the GOP Club thanking them for the presentation. W. Bohjanen reported that the VFW had sold the flag which was purchased for the Village and would get a_ larger one instead. If the Village wishes, the VFW will get an all-weather flag for the Hall; this would require lighting. W. Rosengren noted that it was hard to get someone to put up,a flag in daylight hours with only part time help. W. Bohjanen stated that he had talked with the Minnesota Emblem Co. abput making up a Village flag to hang on the wall at the new building in time for the opening. He passed around the proposed drawing for the buttons, similar to the flag design with the herons. He stated that it was normal to have a flexible date for the first year's celebration. He thought that a sheet of information on the Village could be handed out with the buttons.. There was some discussion as to cost, sales tax, dancing, etc. W. Locher stated that they would have to have a totally separate group to be able to sell beer. They could incorporate a Chamber of Commerce and he would be glad to give us information on requirements. The Village oan spend no funds on such a group --this is paid for by the businessmen. W. Bohjanen stated that he still had nothing definite on a carnival since we have no. set date. They have to know far ahead in order to get insurance, etc. W. Gotwald states umrc it we try to pin the contractor down to a definite completion date it will cost from 15% to 20% more on the bid amount; however, we could ask ,them to put expected beginning and completion dates on the bids.
