I just wanted to let everyone know that our efforts to install a Wayside Exhibit with photos of the camps is not dead. It just has the gestational period of an elephant. With the NPS being so short staffed and our lack of understanding of the full requirements for the exhibit, we have been at loggerheads for some time now.
We feel that this logjam can be broken by enlisting the assistance of a firm that specializes in designing this type of project for the NPS and has done quite a few for them. That firm is Kirilloff Design and I have attached are some examples they have provided. Kirilloff%20Design%20Portfolio.pdf as well as Kirilloff%20Design%20Past%20%20%20Experience.pdf
They have a good understanding of what we hope to accomplish as well as the requirements of the NPS, so we expect to get this project moving again very quickly. This will increase the cost of the project a fair bit, as Rod Goodwin had been doing the designe work for us gratis, but we are hopeful that we have enough funds to finish things up without having to look for additional donations. I hope that everyone will take a minute to reach out to Rod for all of the hard work he has put into this project. While the final design won't be his, he has put his heart and soul into this project.
So, that brings you up to date for now. As soon as I have more to report, I will be in touch!
