HISTORIC PRESERVATION CONIlVIISSION <br />PRESERVATION SPECIALIST REPORT <br />January 26, 2015 <br />Hello Commission! <br />I hope all of you have had a wonderful new year thus far. I have not been able to <br />attend many of the meetings in 2014, but I hope that a change in the scheduling at the <br />other job will allow me more opportunities to do so in 2015. <br />Not much to report as far as new work being performed in the districts. As the <br />weather permits more projects will develop. A great deal of my time is currently being <br />spent in the field performing house visits in regards to work to be performed in warmer <br />weather. Amazingly, quite a few questions about winterizing and windows have come <br />forth rather late in the game, but before it is too late. I still think we need to consider a <br />winterizing workshop. October 24th is a bye week for Notre Dame Football and should be <br />close enough for folks to utilize the information before the snow falls. We did have snow <br />for Halloween in 2014. Your thoughts and recommendations are always welcome. <br />I love talking about what's happening next, so let us start there: <br />-March 18th lecture on Industrialists' Mansions of South Bend at History Museum <br />-April 18th Intro to Power Tools Workshop II <br />-April 22 -24th Statewide Preservation Conference. Session Presenter <br />-May 2nd Studebaker Drivers' Club Bus Tour <br />-May 22 -24th SB 150 weekend <br />-June 13 Studebaker-Bendix Heritage Bike Tour (tentative) <br />-June 20 Cemetery Workshop lecture and demonstration <br />-June 21 Cemetery headstone work volunteer day <br />-August 15 Cemetery headstone work volunteer day <br />-September 13 Local Historic District Bus Tour <br />This is going to be a very exciting and busy year. I hope to see some you <br />attending some of these events and perhaps even assisting in these events if you are able <br />to. As always, I am very grateful and proud to be a part of what we do here. If any of you <br />have any questions or suggestions, I am at your service. <br />Thank you, <br />Steve Szaday <br />Preservation Specialist <br />HPCSBSJC <br />
