Sculptures at an Exhibition (With Apologies to Mussorgsky)
On Thursday, October 9, at 5:30 PM, we're "unveiling" two sculptures. One is "The Ballplayer" in Griffing Park, and the other is "Red Headlong" in front of Village Hall.
We're meeting at the Griffing Park piece first, then walking over to the log cabin. I don't know if someone is placing, then removing, actual veils, but we'll make a bit of ceremony over it. Refreshments, I'm told, will be served at Village Hall.
Come see these two pieces, one or both of which you've already seen. Come join your neighbors and enjoy this enhancement of the Village. And feel free to donate, if you haven't already.
"Red Headlong" is already paid for. The Village now owns it. "The Ballplayer" was purchased by one of our neighbors, and if we can contribute enough to reimburse him much of the way, we'll own that one, too. The purchase price was $6000, and he says he'd like his own contribution to wind up being about $500. So we're looking to collect $5500. We now have $941, as some of us have already contributed.
Contribute what you like, and get your friends to chip in, too. I have every confidence we'll get there. Sooner is better than later. In any event, come on by Griffing Park. Thursday, 10/9, at 5:30.
