**NEWS/REMINDERS/MISCELLANEOUS:**
Due to all the events we have in July, many volunteers are scheduled for multiple shifts during the month. I just wanted to thank everybody once again for their continued dedication, especially during the summer months when the volunteer crew is lower in number, but the need for coverage is higher. We really couldn't do it without you all.

One final reminder about our special new set of cards for sale at the museum. They act as a self-guided tour of some highlights in the museum. Patrons can go on a "scavenger hunt" for all the featured artifacts while they peruse the museum. These cards feature hand drawn illustrations of a selection of artifacts on one side and a detailed description on the other side--and this incredible item was created by our very own volunteers, Inbal and Eliana. Big thanks to them for their dedicated, amazing work on this project.
When doing a front desk shift, please mention this item as part of your introductory greeting or as you are collecting admissions. They can be described as "a self-guided tour in the form of a collectible, hand-made souvenir, available only at our museum for just $3 dollars!" Not only is it a quaint little keepsake of the museum for our patrons, but a great way for them to go beyond the visceral wonder of our artifacts and gain some background knowledge of what we are showcasing and the history of New York as a whole.
Many thanks,
Dominick
