Headquarters

Present

The official Headquarters of The Augustan Society, Inc., is presently located in the home of the Consuls at 12716 Newfield Dr., Orlando FL 32837, United States. Activities at this location include office work, printing, binding, shipping, storage of office supplies, maintenance of equipment, and a small stock of magazines and insignia for sale.

The mailing address of the Society is PO Box 771267, Orlando FL 32877-1267, United States. This post office is located at 1701 W Wetherbee Rd, Orlando, FL 32837, United States. (The difference in the two zip codes is due to both being served from this office.)

The Society rents four storage units at ExtraSpace Storage, 13125 S John Young Pkwy, Orlando, FL 32837, United States. The entrance is actually on Substation Road. The units are:

• 947 — File Room, containing Society records, insignia, back issues, Order records, family history files, maps (including a large map cabinet), and equipment storage. This room is better lit, and contains a small desk.

• 961 — Storage Room, containing uncataloged books and magazines, empty box storage.

• 986 — Library Room, containing cataloged books and magazines on library shelving. Note that the aisles in this room are narrow (22" or 56cm), and the lighting is minimal, thus this is not a suitable place for study, though a table can be set up in the hallway adjacent.

• 1119 — Musuem Room, containing the museum collection, furniture, steel storage cabinets, and some back issues and books. This room is filled to the door with no aisles, thus access to anything not by the door requires substantial effort.

Keys to the above are held only by Consuls at this time. ExtraSpace Storage has been informed that Charles Drake is pemitted to access our units. It has been proposed that copies of the keys be made and held by the Legal Committee Chairman, but this has not yet been done. It has also been proposed that items of Society property located at the Consuls' home be clearly marked, and this has begun.

Future Facilities

It is presently expected that the Society will work toward obtaining a rented facility to which the public might be invited. It is not presently expected that this will be completely sufficient to the needs, and that one or more storage units might continue to be required.

The following step would be to obtain a rented facility adequate to all our storage and use needs.

Ultimately, it is intended that the Society will again purchase a facility. It is unlikely that we will be able to obtain one that suits all of the expectations, but it may be possible over time to modify the facility or to replace it with a purpose-built structure. One would expect this last to be in the very distant future indeed, absent some truly amazine donations.
