Mr. Hutchinson noted that the par - Talents ticipants in the reenactment were to be from the British Brigade and Minute ;request Men from other Towns, Lexington Minute Men not having been approached or informed of the plans, which he felt was inappropriate. Several Lexington Minute Men were present to voice their displeasure with the British Brigade's failure to confer with them on the proposal and asked that the Board reject the request. It was noted that each of the Battle participants will be receiving $20 for staging the action, and that the Agency was promoting it on a commercial basis. Mr. Fitzgerald, Chairman of the Town Celebrations Committee, had been unwilling to comment, based on lack of information on details provided. Upon motion duly made and seconded, it was voted to deny the request of the British Brigade for use of Hastings Park for reenactment of a Revolutionary War battle, based on disapproval of the procedures employed by the British Bri- gade. The Brigade will be advised that, in the future, it will be appropriate to seek discussion with the Council of Minutemen and Lexington Minute Men on such activities proposed for Lexington.
