I just got an e-mail from the Whitecaps. They said they can't do a brick, but they would be willing to put a plaque on a bench in front of the ticket office. They didn't mention anything about a price, and am going to write them back to ask.

Depending on what the price is, would we like to go through with a memorial plaque at 5/3 Ballpark for the Whitecaps?

At least they are willing to do something. Huey and I got a very nice card from Brian's parents today. They couldn't believe all the nice things we have said and done for them. They still have a long ways to go so remember them.

I think this is a nice gesture.

I think it is time that we take a realistic look at what we are going to do. I like what the whitecaps are offering. and Toledo still has the brick program. it is time to decide what is going to take place IMO.

Check in with Oblong... I thought he was coordinating this...

Maybe you could give a list of what has already been done Rob, and a list of some other options we could consider if there is still monies to be contributed to Brian's memory in other ways...?

Once I get a price from the Whitecaps, I think we should go ahead with the plaque. If I don't get an e-mail within a day or two, I'll give them a phonecall to find out the exact price, and what we'd have to do to go through with it.
