She thanked Mal for leading the project and other members for participating.  She asked members to look at postings of photos by Ron and videos by Stu. Mary Anne thanked Weichert and Coviellos for providing the trucks. She also noted that Karen’s Lady Liberty torch received many complements. Chatham Band sounded great, as usual.
