Lee,
You mentioned that this was a money maker for the Berlin Area Histo
rical Society. Did you charge admission? If so, what amount see
med appropriate. We have done this same type of thing in the past but
have not charged any admission. We did request a donation from each
group that invited us to speak. Just curious how you handled the admi
ssion or financial part of this.
Thank you,
Barb, Reedsburg Area Histor
ical Society.

We will have to keep that in mind.
If you purchase the DVD that the
other society mentioned, I'd b
e interested to know what you think of it.
