Fund Raising:
Seven donations in April, including
four new donors and three repeat donors, added $880 to our total!!
This included cash donations at the most recent The total number of donors is now 203.
All donors (individuals, couples and groups) are listed
alphabetically at the end of this update. Please know if you have yet to
donate, you can still become part of the Memorial if you can spare as
little as $10 for this worthy cause to recognize your fellow alumni who
served our Great Country. We will very much appreciate any amount you
can spare. Remember, all donations are
tax deductible. Just follow
the simple instructions below. Your
generosity will be very much appreciated. Donation checks should be made out to: Hicksville And should be mailed to: We began accepting
donations in October, 2014, upon achieving tax-exempt status from the
IRS. $3,400 was raised in
the remaining 3 months of 2014, $6,200 in 2015, $8,300 in 2016, $16,488
in 2017 and $675 in 2018. The
new total well surpasses our original $25,000 goal and expectations!
We owe this result to all our donors who have helped achieve
it over the past 4+ years!! Memorial Construction:
Weather conditions this past week complicated our contractor's
schedule and caused a delay in pouring the Memorial's footers.
The footers will now likely be poured next Saturday, May 4th,
when school is not in session.
We did, however, receive the fully engraved plaque (as displayed
on this newsletter's Home Page) listing all When
we started the project, we never knew we'd collect nearly 2,000 names!
Since the final list is so large, we tried abbreviating the data
next to the names as shown in a link to last month's update, only to
find that the abbreviations would require extensive notes to explain
them and would not really reduce our engraving costs.
We have therefore now decided to eliminate the active duty
locations from the list of names as the Memorial's "Vietnam War
Era" title and the center stone plaque's wording well describe that
all those named served their country during the Vietnam War in some
capacity, whether in Hence,
each engraving will include the full name (last, first and middle
initial) of all who served, followed by their respective branch of
service. All
names will still be listed alphabetically by graduating class year.
The new link below,
will enable you to view the listings as they will appear on the
completed Memorial. We must now consider the List
of Names to be FINAL, so we can proceed to order the engraved plates
after our plate vendor gives us a complete quote for approval. FINAL Confirmed List of Names: Please
