Project Progress Reports
The committee to edit the oral histories in preparation for printing hard copies did not meet. The committee consisting of Peter Smith, Karen Baggett, Janette Bloom, and Susan Southwick will correspond by email and work on this project in November.
Victoria Mendoza will edit and add clarifying information to the John Mendoza manuscript of his oral history. Victoria has some photographs will could possibly be added. Victoria will work on an introduction. Peter Smith thanked Victoria on behalf of the membership for her willingness to take on this project.
The Ten Cases exhibit is almost ready for display. Governor Sandoval has been actively interested in getting this exhibit functioning and on display. The buttons which start the recordings work, the sound quality is excellent, the case has been refinished, and the new working components are in one box which differs from previous version where the working components consisted of several separate pieces. The photographs still need to be printed and put on the display on a removable panel which needs to be sized exactly to fit the display case. Jeff Kintop shared a poster of the picture panel with the group and it looked very good. Jeff will try to do the work in-house but if not Janette Bloom suggested some people who may be able to help. Jeff estimated that the Ten Cases display will be ready to go on display again in about two weeks assuming he can do the work in-house.
Susan Southwick made the suggestion that the Governor be asked to attend a reception for this exhibit.

Janette has all the paperwork and the check ready to be filed with the Secretary of State. Once the paperwork has been filed the copy will be sent to Christine Timko at the Nevada Supreme Court Law Library* (*Copy of the annual filing arrived at the Nevada Supreme Court Law Library on September 21, 2016).
