Have a voice in the National WWI Memorial.

WE NEED YOUR VOICE -- SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR THE NEW NATIONAL WWI MEMORIAL IN DC

A very important decision-meeting is coming up, and we need your help with it.

The U.S. Commission of Fine Arts (CFA) in Washington, DC will meet on Thursday, 19 July 2018, 9 a.m. at 401 F Street, NW, Suite 312. They will discuss design approval for our National World War I Memorial.

The CFA will accept public comments regarding the design, to include comments in support of the memorial project, and use them as part of their review of the National World War I Memorial project

Submitting a comment is easy to do -- and just a sentence is enough to help our cause. Deadline for submissions is 4pm Wednesday 18 July.
