Thanks very much to all that attended tonight's meeting We had a good turnout and ended up having a fabulously good time reminiscing about our grade schools and other various points of interest of the downtown we once knew that have disappeared forever from the landscape. However, we all agreed. Hotel Winner was not to be missed!! I think we all kinda realize how fortunate we were in our childhoods to grow up there.
On the following meeting subjects we all agreed to
Banner wording-this is now official Anne!
2 vinyl banners of 15 feet long by 2 feet wide with a bluish background and lettering
"Class of '74, See me, Hear me....after 35 years we're still here!!
A smaller vinyl banner 4x6? to say
"Tommy-Pinball Wizard"
Melissa and Anne will be meeting with Ray tomorrow to finalize that and the memorial board as well.
Elton John Pants and Boots.
The pants will be worked on by Anita and John and Phil will see if a decent replica of the boots can be put together.
The B&M Baked Beans wording on the 6 barrels will be in the form of lettering provided by Ray
Paint for the pinball machine will be taken care of the day of the build
Helium for the 20 balloons will be provided by Melissa. If unable to do so, several other sources are available for this.
The Anne Margaret outfit will NOT fit Rachel in the size as offered. Rachel will be contacted by Phil to see if she can come up with an alternative on her own. A consignment or 2nd store may be the solution.
Funding is still holding steady at $900.00 which should be more than enough to cover expenses.
Responses from the class letter sent out by Charlene have been very slow. A lot of people will probably make decisions at the last minute. A small number of letters came back as undeliverable.
Next meeting will be held on May 26th same time same station.
Best to all, and good night.
Phil
Now......A little "Tommy" history link provided here for you viewing pleasure!!! Thanks to Anita for digging this up!
