Spring 2006
One cannot pass by the mill without noting all the obvious improvements made during the 2005 season. Every window has been repaired and painted. The foundation has been made structurally sound. All rotten siding boards have been replaced. Most of the building has been painted. The stage has been repaired and painted. An additional side stage was constructed for the sound engineer. The kitchen and log cabin have also had a facelift. These improvements were necessary but did not come cheaply. Additional funds will be needed to begin Phase II of the restoration project. Due to increased operating costs and a decline in available grant funds, we find it necessary to implement a moderate increase in membership and admission fees for the first time in decades. In addition, we are requesting a voluntary, one time only, contribution of $20.00 from each of our life members. We are also streamlining our budget by eliminating the Rainbow Rider for the 2006 season and making other savings in our public relations and food services. Look forward to more modest entertainment programs in the following years. We hope these measures meet with your approval and support so that we may move forward with another productive and exciting season. A special thanks to Robert Solinger who maintained the Terrace Mill website from 2001-2005. Besides creating much of the original content, Bob had been paying our fees for hosting and registration. Thank you, Bob, for initiating a web presence for the Terrace Mill. The Mill Board appreciates the gift of your time and skills. Volunteers like you keep this place alive. |

Retiring Supporters . . .
Richard presented Helen Claire Anderson, retiring board member and Mary Henriksen, retiring Mill Site Manager with Rosémale plates in appreciation for their service. The plates, painted by Judy Christianson, each depicted a representation of the Terrace Mill with personal scripts on the backs. A potluck dinner was shared to celebrate these two friends of the Terrace Mill. They will surely be missed.
