It was further indicated <br /> that the Studebaker Museum attracts approximately ten percent <br /> (10%) of its attendance from the local community and ninety <br /> percent (90%) of its patrons from out of town. The Northern <br /> Indiana Historical Museum attracts ten percent (10%) from out of <br /> town and approximately ninety percent (90%) locally. <br /> The last activity reviewed by the Committee was the classi- <br /> fication of "other activities".
