This format is commendableand should be continued. Probably our proudest achievement during 1986-87 has been the eKort to increue the membership and, secondly,to enrich the modest endowment fund. Both cam- paigns fell below their respective targets, but we believe that failure is not a miss, but a low aim is inexcusable.We aimed for the starsin both instances.The endowment fund reached a level above the $200,000 mark, which assures an income in excess of $13,000per year.This figure is approximately11% of the cost of operation, and it will keep increasing gradually if wc all fulfill our original intentions. It is understood that only the incomefrom the principlewill be usedfor operatingexpenses. While we cannot anticipate our emergencie;, from past experience they have plagued the organization at times. Our greatestconcern at this moment is the possibility that we may loseour accredi- tation with the American Associationof Museums.The reasonsgiven are our fHlure to implement the recommendationsof previous evaluationsof 1972as to sufficient star. inadequate financial backing, no retirement policy and inadequate benefits pack- ageior staff members,inadequate Hire and intrusion protection, lack of proper securi- ty, and inadequate storage facilities and climate control. A concluding comment in the inspection report mentioned that much had been done, but much remains to be done It should be noted that, although theJune 25, 1986examiner's report and checklist ended with the comment that, ''l am glad to recommend the continued accreditation of the Lycoming County Historical Museum,'' the American Association of Museums Accreditation ReviewBoard voted to table the Museum's accreditation for one year. That year soon ends and a report of correcteddeficiencies and a scheduledplan .of implementation must be made to the Accreditation Review Board by December 1, 1997. Respectfully submitted Horace H.

  • Southern Plant Lists
    Southern Plant Lists Southern Garden History Society A Joint Project With The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation September 2000 1 INTRODUCTION Plants are the major component of any garden, and it is paramount to understanding the history of gardens and gardening to know the history of plants. For those interested in the garden history of the American south, the provenance of plants in our gardens is a continuing challenge. A number of years ago the Southern Garden History Society set out to create a ‘southern plant list’ featuring the dates of introduction of plants into horticulture in the South. This proved to be a daunting task, as the date of introduction of a plant into gardens along the eastern seaboard of the Middle Atlantic States was different than the date of introduction along the Gulf Coast, or the Southern Highlands. To complicate maters, a plant native to the Mississippi River valley might be brought in to a New Orleans gardens many years before it found its way into a Virginia garden. A more logical project seemed to be to assemble a broad array plant lists, with lists from each geographic region and across the spectrum of time. The project’s purpose is to bring together in one place a base of information, a data base, if you will, that will allow those interested in old gardens to determine the plants available and popular in the different regions at certain times. This manual is the fruition of a joint undertaking between the Southern Garden History Society and the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. In choosing lists to be included, I have been rather ruthless in expecting that the lists be specific to a place and a time.
