Hall on Wednesday, November 9 for public viewing. Two major stories will appear in the Lexington Minuteman on November 3 and there will be coverage in the Colonial Times as well. Several members offered suggestions on other publicity outlets. Bill Mix: offered to find a crewmember or descendant from the USS Lexington to ring the ship’s bell. Kim Coburn: offered to design the printed program, once the text is provided. We need to get the bunting for draping in Cary Hall from Hank Manz; Wayne Miller has the special ties for securing bunting to the railings. Sandy Podgorski: We might consider giving an honorarium to Gina Johnson and her brother Paul Roth of Operation Home Ties for their considerable logistical efforts in installing their walls of portraits. Lorain said she would look into the advisability of such a gesture. New Action Items Karen Gaughan: Get posters printed for sandwich boards; set up boards at Cary Hall and St. Brigid’s for breakfast. Bill Mix: Try to recruit someone associated with the USS Lexington to attend the Veterans Day Ceremony and ring the ship’s bell during the moment of silence. Sondra Lucente : Complete the shopping for the breakfast, once given the list of supplies Linda Dixon : Complete the script for the ceremony program in time for the November 5 dress rehearsal; send program text to Kim. Kim Coburn : Design the program for the Ceremony. Lorain Marquis: Check whether honorarium to Operation Home Ties is appropriate/permissible.
