One of the short term expected outcomes has partially been met at this time. Though the Historic Structure Report has not yet been posted on our website, there has been enough information placed on both the webpage and the Facebook page and at the Historical Society Annual Meeting about some of the new information found in the report that there was an increase of Holiday traffic and donations of 10% over last year's Holiday Open House. Use of the house as a rental for holiday events has doubled over last year. Two new volunteers have been recruited to work at the Dinehart House in various capacities. One served as a greeter for the Holiday Open House and enjoyed it so much she verbalized excitement about adding the house to her regular volunteering.
The results of the report have as yet to be provided to the County Commissioners, but a review of the results will be scheduled in January of 2018. Intermediate and long term projections will be evaluated over time.
