SOME HIGHLIGHTS/NOTES FROM PAST MEETING MINUTES:

May 1975 Minutes

"The new Cahokia Mounds Museum is being considered by the legislature."

October 1975 Minutes - Attendance Concerns

"There were very few members present at our last meeting. Apparently something needs to be done about increasing interest in our group. The meetings are held regularly, programs are interesting, what can be done to keep our members attending?"

November 1975 Minutes - CAS Symbol/Logo

Symbols for CAS submitted by Al Meyer presented for members' votes. At the February 1976 meeting a symbol was chosen by voting on samples. "Basically it is a triangular Mississippian point with the initials CAS on it."

October 1976 Minutes

...new member Liz Kassly brought several artifacts for identification

...Larry Kinsella reported the log cabin in Fairview Heights City Park is completed

...Bill Iseminger reported on summer's testing at Cahokia Mounds on the proposed museum site.

April 1977 - Newsletter of the CAS (IAAA)

Newly formed Cahokia Mounds Museum Society is seeking membership to help promote Cahokia Mounds and sponsor many new programs that the state cannot be involved in. Jay Jensen of our group was the first paid member of the Society.

Larry Kinsella and several members of the O'Fallon High School History Club spent a few evenings at Cahokia Mounds washing artifacts that Larry and friends recovered during his excavations at the Assembly of God Church site in Fairview Heights.
