Senate services updated the committee on the two-year anniversary of the Capitol’s children's treasure-hunt booklet and its role in visitor engagement.
Staff reported roughly 2,500 booklets have been used since the program began; the booklet is now fully ADA-compliant, and organizers have reached participants ranging from schoolchildren to adults. The presenter noted a program feature in which participants receive a mailed letter from the Senate president and said the booklet has generated strong enthusiasm among visiting families and schools.
The presenter also asked the committee to consider an agenda item for Nov. 19 to discuss rehanging the President's Portrait Gallery in the 3rd-floor rotunda after the temporary 'Inspire to Serve' exhibit concludes. Committee members thanked staff for the presentation and for Cindy Markwell’s role in creating the program.
