<br />2005 Minuteman Cane Award Committee Report <br />Monday, April 4, 2005 <br />2 P.M. in Room 111- Town Hall <br /> <br />Members present were Chairperson Dot Boggia, Sheldon Spector, Marie Hill, David <br />Williams, Larry Whipple and Beverly Kelley. Members absent were Lodia Parilla and <br />Dick Michelson. <br /> <br />We met for our second and last meeting of 2005 and reviewed the nominations of five <br />candidates but we had to discount two of them as they had not lived in Lexington for at <br />least 15 years as is stipulated in the rules. The committee then read over and discussed <br />each of the other three candidates. <br /> <br />The three nominees were Julian Bussgang, Dan Fenn and Don Graham. After <br />considerable discussion, a vote was taken and Don Graham was the winner of the 2005 <br />Minuteman Cane Award. <br /> <br />Dot Boggia, being the committee’s chairperson, contacted Don to tell him the good news! <br />Don and his wife Hazel rode in the convertible during the Patriot’s Day afternoon parade. <br /> <br />The party to honor Don was held on Monday, May 2, 2005 at 2 P.M. at the Senior <br />Center. Members of the committee helped Dot Boggia with the reception which was <br />attended by about 60 people, including several past winners. Dot read the list of the past <br />winners and spoke briefly about each one and then introduced Don, who was attending <br />with his wife Hazel. Don was very gracious in his acceptance. Following the formalities, <br />beverages, desserts, fruit and cake were enjoyed by everyone. <br /> <br />The meeting of April 4, 2005 adjourned at approximately 3 P.M. <br /> <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br /> <br />Beverly Kelley <br />Secretary <br />May 5, 2005 <br />
