Ok gang, I really need your help with this.

[DinwiddieProud]

Dinwiddie is in the development stage of creating a memorial walk/patio area. This involves selling engraved bricks, pavers, and other similar items as a fund raiser and permanent memorial.

I know that many schools across the state have undertaken similar projects. What I’m asking from you is to provide me contact information for anyone that spearheaded projects like this.

We want to pick their brains about what worked good, what problems were encountered, and what they would do differently if they could start over.

I’m looking for information about all aspects of the project. From where they obtain the bricks, etc, how they marketed the selling of the bricks, patterns and configurations of the bricks, even what sub-strata worked best. We just would like to take advantage of other’s experiences.

So, if you can help us out, it will be greatly appreciated. Thank you ahead of time.

No experience in this, but just like technology, it can become obsolete pretty quick.

Maybe not the best way to put it…but said differently, as time moves on, and you want to honor more people, be sure to take that into consideration when it comes to the design and logistics so that you’re not completely landlocked when you need to eventually add more names after the initial development.

Hey gang, I could really use your input on this topic. Even if you only remember where you have seen an engraved memorial brick walk, etc. Let me know where you have seen one and I’ll follow up.
Thank you.
