HICKSVILLE VIETNAM WAR ERA MEMORIAL - PROJECT UPDATE   

With the continued state of the Coronavirus Pandemic, we have nothing new to report at this time.  Last month's Update, for January, 2021, has been again published in the Honoring Our Veterans section of this newsletter and represents the current status of the Project.
We expect this will remain the case for a number of future months to come, but hope the effect of the new vaccines will give us momentum again by late spring to early summer of this year. 
We are pleased to again report that our core action team is safe from the virus.  We are thankful for this and hope the same is true for all our readers and alumni.

While the Dedication Ceremony remains on hold, please remember that the Memorial is complete and can be viewed by anyone visiting the Memorial Gardens located on the south side of the Jerusalem Avenue Middle School.

The project will be officially complete once we are able to conduct the Dedication Ceremony at the Memorial.
On behalf of the Project Team,
 
Joe Carfora
HHS 1962

Each month, we profile a former student that has submitted a biographical sketch of their life. This month we have highlighted John Maniec from the class of 1964. Many of you have not used the opportunity of sharing precious moments with other classmates. It's not too late to submit a sketch to be included in the Alumni Bio Section (click the link on the left to go to the bios section) of the newsletter. We are including a writeable document that you can fill in on you computer and, after completing the document, forward to editors@hixnews.com
