Commemorative Flag-pole ordered
The CGJA has recently ordered a 30’ white fiberglass flag-pole to replace the existing 20 foot temporary pole at the entrance to the museum. The flagpole was ordered from Flagpole Warehouse in Acworth, GA.
Upon arrival the inmates from Franklin Correctional Institution will install the pole into the foundation. There will be a dedication ceremony during the reunion with a bronze plaque placed at the base of the flagpole. Individuals who donated money for the purchase of the flagpole will have their names or names of their veteran relatives inscribed on the plaque. We advertised earlier for contributors but will continue to accept donations through January 2012.
A sketch of the plaque is shown below. It will be bronze and will be raised at the base of the flag-pole. The size is currently 12”x12” and the type is from 48pt. to 30pt. in size. The final number of donors will determine the final size, however, the minimum size will be 12” x 12”
Donations are $100.00 minimum. Make check payable to CGJA and write “Memorial Flagpole Fund” on the memo line.

Be sure to name the relative, or yourself, to be named on the plaque.
