should cut?

Discussion is continuing on a
veterans memorial for the town
of Chilhowie, but the public is
invited to start contributing toward its cost.
At the May 14 meeting of the
Chilhowie Town Council, Mayor Gary Heninger updated the
council on the project to build a
memorial in the town.
Heninger passed out photos of
a memorial whose design would
suit the town. The cost, he said,
would be between $3,915 and
$4,250, depending on the number of benches to be placed at
the memorial.
The design shown would be
about four feet high and three
feet wide with an eight-foot
base. It was recommended not
to use brick due to deterioration but instead to use plates of
slate, which can be removed for
engraving and be re-installed
on the memorial. The town
could charge a fee toward maintenance to have names added
to the memorial.
Flags placed behind the memorial would be the American
flag and the Virginia flag. Flagpoles are being donated by citizens, said Heninger.
