For general (my) information-----has a roster of the members of the
2020 Centennial Committee been made public. I’m asking this question because
early last year (2014) I was asked if I would be willing to serve on such a
committee. I indicated that I would be pleased to serve and have received
nothing in any form as to who the committee members are or who is in the Chair
or anything else as to the activities of the committee until this discussion was
begun by Jill. Obviously there has been committee activity so who else, besides
me, was not kept informed?

Logo----- "All entries shall become the property of the
American Iris Society". If that statement was made at the onset there would be
no need now for this discussion. And there would be no need for all this
post acceptance activity. The artist, then, would have either accepted the
“rule” and submitted an entry or rejected it and moved on.

Logo----- No, we have
not inserted such statement, and I'm not sure that it would have been enough to
deter any challenges. The idea has been that we would have the winning artist
sign a Release. I'm working with our Legal Advisor, Veronica Johnson (and
President, Gary White) to procure any necessary forms. In any case, a Release
Agreement that needs filling out and signed by the logo creator is in the works.
Or, Veronica may decide that something else is in order. We'll follow her
advice, of course. Once all the paperwork is in order we will be able to use the
logo for all kinds of purposes.
The 2020
Centennial Committee has still to decide which items will be produced and when.
If many clubs and/or individuals are interested in getting hold of some these
items at a specific timeframe please let it be known so that we all know that
there's an interest. Of course consider that we're still five years away. Thank
you all. If you have any feedback or ideas, we'd like to receive them via the
email we have set up for this purpose: ais2020centennial@gmail.com
Hope this
clarifies this issue.

Note: So glad
to hear that we may stirred some interest in the Centennial activities for many
iris lovers from around the country and overseas. I'm hearing from people that
are planning to attend the Centennial Convention from very far away.
