Things
are looking up for the new gazebo. Although fundraising is well
under-way, we are still needing people to purchase bricks in
order to break soil in spring of 2004.
How
exactly will the bricks be used? The 500 bricks will form a
walkway surrounding the gazebo. 'Click-the-Brick' to
see inscriptions for bricks already sold.
The
bricks can be engraved anyway you would like.
Lettering on bricks may consist of: two lines of thirteen
characters each. Bricks
cost $40.00 each.
In
the future the gazebo will possibly be used for such events as:
ice cream socials, wedding receptions/ceremonies, birthday
parties, evenings in the park, and
in many other diverse ways.
When
Deborah Kennamore, Director, was asked why the Museum and
Society chose the gazebo, she stated, “Because, I’ve been to
other places and seen how gazebos have become the focal point
for a variety of community activities. Our gazebo will be
modeled after one in Ft. Leavenworth.”
Deborah later
added that the gazebo will help to create a “gathering”
place for the community.
