Mine's on. Oh. Mine's still flashing. Mine flash for a little bit. Oh, there's a new. Oh, mine's on. There we go. Okay. Okay. So we'll just talk into these, but I'm glad you watched the other one. I had a hard time hearing exclaim. Are they talking? Okay. Let's uh call the meeting to order. Um we need to approve the minutes from June. Do we have uh I'll motion to approve the minutes from June 5th, 2025. Second? I'll second it. All in favor? I so um I know a lot hasn't happened in the last little bit, and I do apologize for that. Um I have worked a little bit more on gathering up pictures and uh labeling them to eventually uh send them to our communications department to put them on our website. I've been trying to organize it and uh label on my end before I send it to them. I initially tried to send a few and asked for various categories that we had uh decided upon previously to be put on the website and they asked that uh it not be done um at all at once. They didn't want to put categories up there uh and not have anything to within it, and they didn't want to have it piecemealed sent to them. So just been working on uh getting that all together so I can just send it and it can be this finished uh robust thing that they can put on there. So um and then I have worked a little bit on brainstorming on the oral history project uh putting on the website, but I have not finished it. Um Alex, is there any developments on historic homes? Yeah, I think uh Kim was able to go to his neighbors and talk about it, but we were waiting for the new coins, right? Yes, so we got these new coins. Look how awesome these look. They're like they're 3D. That's why Brooke sent them back. They looked flat before, but these look pretty amazing, I think. That is awesome. Um and so I think when I've talked to Kim, he's had a ton of health problems. Yeah. And so he and he really wants to be here when we present. So I said, let's push it off till October because we're not like in a rush, and he's gone to a lot of work to get those families. So Kim's been awesome. And I other than that, it's I've just been waiting for these. And um now that we have the actual so do we have 50 of these then? Yeah. So now's the time to just get to work and going out. And I have a couple people in mind as well. Um, but yeah, I I definitely want Kim to be a part of it. Yeah, so I guess the Sieverts family, C vers family, they have four different homes that he wants to present to four. And he talked to them and they were good with October. So we'll kind of shoot for that and see if he's feeling better by then. So wonderful. And then Alex, have you had an opportunity to think about how you want the historic homes on the website to be organized?
