Mayor Gary,
I have a couple of questions regarding our nation's 250th anniversary and Colorado's 150th.
The Legion is establishing a committee to put together a plan to celebrate these anniversaries and wondering if the Town had thoughts on what they want to do and/or if they would partner with us in planning. At this point we are thinking of educational and/or entertaining things (history, citizenship type) at the Legion, and involving, if they want, the schools, League of Women's Voters, etc. I anticipate starting these opportunities in April or May, culminating in a big celebration on July 4.
The next item is we are having a GALA on July 2 at the Legion and want to formally invite you. Big picture, it's designed as a semi-formal celebration/fundraiser for the Foundation with a schedule that looks something like this;
5:30 – 6:30 Drinks,
Mingling, Appetizers, Silent Auction in Tavern Area
6:30 – 7:30 Dinner
in Main Hall
7:30 – 8:00
Comments: weaving Legion achievements
into theme of community, God and Country. Silent Auction winners.
8:00 – 10:00 Dancing/Mingling. Kings of Swing Big Band
Let us know if you can attend, and I'd love to get together and discuss this some time.
Regards,
Dan
