New designs addedBy dougsevert(58) I've added two additional drawing of the proposed design after a suggestion from the committee meetings on 15/16 September. One shows the bronze relief of the school building on the top as suggested in the meeting and another shows it at the bottom. All of the material for this proposal comes from the actual school building except for the bronze relief plaque. This Blog Post has been read 0 times.

Comment by dougsevert(58) Vince, the shape that I envisioned for the Memorial Plaza or concrete pad would be a trapezoid. The front or "Wall" part of the monument would be approximately 25 ft. wide. Depth would be approximately 15 ft. tapering to a length at the back to approximately 6 ft. The 6ft side is where the flag pole is pictured. The surface of the plaza or pad could be textured and colored concrete rather than just being plain. I had thought of using individually engraved bricks for the surface, but I don’t know how bricks of any kind that were placed on the ground would stand the test of time in that climate. Debth Comment by dougsevert(58) I'm asking Jim to cost out the bronze casting for the school picture and Lud, the flag pole Comment by dougsevert(58) Also, I've asked Doug for the dimensions of # 1 (with the bench on top)so Don can return to Jack for another quote. Comment by dougsevert(58) I think we already decided that the picture circa 1929 is the most definitive of the school and would be the best for the bronze plaque. We probably would need the best available picture to supply to the manufacturer of the plaque. I know the one I use I got digitally from Tom Nicholls so he must have the orginal picture that it was scanned from. If anyone else has it, please let me know, but in the mean time I will write to Tom and ask him about that source document.
