  1. Historical Society president William Cashman acknowledges a booking mistake affecting Museum Week dates, explains the proposed July 11–16 schedule and possible supplemental programming, and says the Society would replace the vague “third week in July” convention with a date formula. The discussion documents planning and coordination problems, not completion of every proposed program.
