During the Open House at the The Triangle Center you are invited to bring your best Old Town historical tale, artifact or photograph in an attempt to "stump the historians".

ANNUAL MEMBER’S MEETING/ANNUAL ELECTION
Pursuant to the OTTA By-Laws, the Secretary is required to notify membership of the date, time, and place for the impending Annual Election of the Board of Directors of the Old Town Triangle Association. No member submitted an alternate slate and so the 2013 Annual Election will not require a paper ballot vote. Instead, a viva voce vote will be taken at the Annual Meeting.
As slated by the Nominating Committee (Scott Early, Chair, Lucy Baldwin, & Corinne Svoboda), the candidates for this year’s Board election are as follows:
- President: Vi Daley
- Vice President: Jeff Smith
- Secretary: Karen Pfendler
- Treasurer: Claire Leaman
- Director (3 Yrs.) Anne Giffels
- Director (3 Yrs.) David Pfendler
The date for the Annual Members’ Meeting has been changed to January 31, 2013 to be held at 1763 N. North Park Ave. The dinner will begin at 6:30 P.M. The meeting and election will begin promptly at 8:00 P.M. All OTTA members are encouraged to attend the meeting and reconnect with other neighbor-members and meet the 2013 Board. This year’s meeting marks the 65th Anniversary of the establishment of the OTTA. We would love to see an overflow crowd in attendance to acknowledge/celebrate this extraordinary milestone.
The theme to this year’s meeting is ‘Taste of the Triangle’. Our menu will consist of foods catered by the following local restaurants: Adobo Grill, Corcoran’s, Marge’s, Stanley’s, Rocco Ranalli’s, Twin Anchors, Delightful Pastries, & Catering Chocolate. You won’t want to miss this dinner!
OTTA will be setting up a gallery display featuring past Art Fair Posters [both framed and unframed] for sale. This will be a limited 2 week display ending the evening of our Annual Meeting. Also for sale will be a limited number of framed, Old Town Triangle maps designating both the historic and landmarked boundaries of the Triangle.
And finally, since this is the annual Members’ Meeting and not a Board meeting, if members have any questions or concerns regarding matters relating to the Association, please email Secretary Karen Pfendler at Secretary@oldtowntriangle.com and let her know the nature of those questions or concerns. There will be a slot on the meeting’s agenda for member input.
