With Bobby Byrd in the lead, Lori, Ron, and I have been working on an application to the Tennessee Historical Commission to erect an historical marker on Dodds Avenue. We’ve proposed that it be located in the planting strip between the sidewalk and the curb approximately centered on where the building stood. Yesterday, Bobby visited the Commission where they were kind enough to do a courtesy review before submission. Our application was acceptable, but the Commission representative suggested a few changes to the proposed text and how we show supporting documentation in the bibliography. We decided to accept those suggestions and are working on the changes. In a few days Bobby will hand-carry the final application back over to the Commission. We expect it to be considered by the Commission at it’s November meeting and are optimistic it will be approved. Total cost of the marker is $1,400 to be paid within a few days of approval. Donations can be made to the Central Historical Marker Fund. Please make checks out to Central Historical Marker Fund and mail them to Bob Johnson, 8909 180th St. Ct. E, Puyallup, WA 98375 or get your check to Lori, Ron, or Bobby. The application is being submitted on behalf of all Central alumni.
