I think I'm signed up but it's been a while. Hey Cornbread, is there a list yet of who has signed up? I'm getting older and the memory can only handle so much these days! I hope I did because I plan on being there.
Sign-cerely, Steve

I'm thinking of having a Pink Floyd Concert at our Wall. I'm sure there will be other special events at our site as well.
Putting the finishing touches on The Roger Reiman design. Hopefully we can get that approved soon and get rolling on the preliminary work for this project. We have some cool stuff in the works.
I have put together a little website which outlines The Reiman project, you can find it here...

I'm signed up as well as the Butler County Historical Society lady, Pat Collins. She wants to see what a meet is like since we are hosting one in July 2016. This will be my first meet in many years and I'm pretty damn excited about it. Jane, do you need us on your wall? Love....Jill

I need help on my wall if anyone is interested.
I've got Sue Banasky and John Lenning on board so far. Lots of lettering and pictoral work and if any one feels like airbrushing flames that would definitely be an option.

We have great number of painters signed up. I don't think you'll have any problem finding artist to paint on you wall.
