Gallery Programs
City as Canvas: Graffiti Art from the Martin Wong Collection
60 Minute Guided Tour for Grades 4-12
During a gallery tour of the City As Canvas exhibition, students will view highlights from the Museum's rich collection of 1970s and 80s graffiti art in New York. By analyzing the drawings, paintings, photographs and blackbooks collected by Martin Wong, students will learn about New York City artists known as "writers", like Keith Haring, Lady Pink, Lee Quiñones, and Daze, and the historical context in which their work was created. Students will be able to elaborate on the multiple perspectives surrounding street art, discuss the various styles represented, and will respond creatively to the pieces by drafting their own sketches.
Reading Buildings for grades K-2.
60 minutes; Seasonal offering available September - November and April - June.
Become a secret agent team as you explore the City Museum's building during this hands-on scavenger hunt. Discover the columns, pediments, lintels, and other special details that were used to create the architectural style of this Colonial Revival landmark. During the program, students will use an architectural outline of the Museum to fill in with their own drawings of the building's features.
Taking a Stand: History of Social Activism in New York
Discover how New Yorkers have stood up for what they believe in and fought for change over the past 350 years. Students will explore the Activist New York exhibition, which is full of photographs, buttons, pamphlets, signs, and banners, to learn about a variety of topics, including abolition, suffrage, immigration, civil rights, and more. Participants will have the opportunity to create a badge championing a change they want to make that addresses an issue facing New Yorkers today.
Who Is New York? Mapping Immigration Then and Now for Grades 4-8
New York became the quintessential immigrant city in the early 20th century, but today even more immigrants live here than a hundred years ago – the largest number in the city's history. Following a viewing of Timescapes, a 22-minute multimedia documentary on the city's history, students will use the history of early 20th-century mass immigration as a springboard to discuss immigration today, examining maps, charts, and census data to learn where immigrant groups come from and where they settle. Students will leave knowing more about how immigration has impacted each of the city's boroughs and how the city's character has been shaped by diversity and transformation over time.
Picturing New York City History: Highlights of the Museum
60 Minute Guided Exploration for Grades 2–12
Experience the art and artifacts displayed in the Museum's latest exhibitions. The interactive tours will be arranged according to grade level with opportunities for students to sketch or write their reflections during the experience. Teachers should specify if they wish to include a viewing of Timescapes.
Click here to learn more about our upcoming exhibitions.
History Lab Programs
Explore New York's history in the Museum's classrooms through our hands-on History Lab Programs. In addition to the classroom-based activities, teachers may request a 20-minute addition to any History Lab program. During this additional time, students will have a guided visit to a Museum exhibition currently on view.
The Grid: Urban Planning in New York City for Grades K-5
Participants will learn about the origins and evolution of Manhattan's street grid system and how it changed over time. Topics will include an introduction to concepts of city planning, including zoning and land use regulations that impact the makeup of our city's neighborhoods. Afterwards, the group will construct a model neighborhood that conforms to this 200-year-old plan.
Getting Around: How Transportation Shaped the City for Grades 2-5
From horsedrawn omnibuses to electric cars, transportation in New York City has undergone many changes from the 1800s to present day. Using images that vividly document these changes, students will create a pictorial timeline of the evolution of transportation in the city, including their own ideas for future innovations that could include natural gas or hybrid vehicles.
Mannahatta: The Lenape and the Land for Grades 2-5
Students will learn about the Lenape Native Americans who called their island "Mannahatta." Drawing on the context of the Wildlife Conservation Society's Mannahatta Project, which meticulously reconstructed the natural landscape of Manhattan in 1609, the students will uses maps, images, and Native American objects to explore the relationship between the Lenape people and their surrounding habitat. At the conclusion of the session, students will create a storyboard tracing the use of the island's resources from their natural state in the environment to how the Lenape used them.
New York City Bridges for Grades 2-6
New York City is an archipelago—a cluster of islands—that is connected by bridges and tunnels. Students will explore the many types of bridges in the city—beam, truss, steel arch, pivot, and suspension—that help us travel to, from, and among the five boroughs. Each student will then take on the role of an engineer to design and build models of these bridges.
Life in New Amsterdam for Grades 2-6
Visit New Amsterdam, the Dutch colony that was established as a trading post in the early 17th century. Using a 3D scale model of the Castello Plan measuring 11 x 12 feet, along with and objects, maps, and images, students will learn the history behind Lower Manhattan street names and "meet" individuals who lived and worked on these New Amsterdam streets. The class will create a map of New Amsterdam to represent these important people and places from the early 1600s.
Bronx Tales: A History of the Borough for Grades 2-6
Join us to celebrate the Bronx Centennial! Learn about the rich history of the Bronx by analyzing sources such as maps, photographs, music and more! Students will investigate themes such as: famous places, notable people from the Bronx, transportation and infrastructure, parks, and art and culture. Participants will create a map documenting their findings to showcase a comprehensive understanding of the borough to honor its 100th birthday as a county.

A week after the birth of their third child, Claudia Schiffer and husband Matthew Vaughn have decided on a name for their new daughter.
Cosima Violet Vaughn Drummond is the name the supermodel has chosen for the little girl, born last Monday at London's Portland hospital.
The couple - who have two other children, seven-year-old son Caspar and five-year-old daughter Clementine - wanted to wait until "the whole family met the newborn" before they announced her name.

NEW ROCHELLE, NY - Iona College men's basketball graduate Scott Machado has been invited to the National Basketball Association's Draft Combine held in Chicago on June 7-8. Machado is one of sixty college players invited to the exclusive showcase of NBA Draft prospects.
Since the end of an historic senior campaign, Machado has been training in Los Angeles, CA. He finished his classes and walked in Iona's commencement celebration on May 12. He has since had successful tryouts for a number of NBA teams including the New Jersey Nets, Philadelphia 76ers and the Boston Celtics.
Machado's classmate, Mike Glover, is also an NBA Draft hopeful. Glover also participated in the Nets draft camp and has been invited to the Chicago Bulls camp later this week. Glover also previously competed in the Portsmouth Invitational in Virginia.
The Iona duo looks to become the first Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference performers selected in the NBA Draft since Rider's Jason Thompson was picked 12th by the Sacramento Kings in 2008. Sean Green was the last Iona player selected as the 14th pick in the second round by the Indiana Pacers.

All of a sudden……out of nowhere. IT'S PINKIE PIE!!
Is Pinkie Pie hyper? No. Roadrunner was hyper. The Angry Beavers were hyper. Pinkie Pie has completely rocketed off the hyper charts and become something similar to an ADHD sufferer on a red cordial and cocaine bender.
This turbo-Pony has become extremely popular amongst fans. If any pony could be fairly given the title of MLP Mascot, it would be Pinkie, no contest. There are two habits she has that have propelled her to Equestrian stardom. One is her tendency to subtly break the fourth wall by looking directly at the viewer, as if she knows that they are there. The other, is her apparent ability to bend space and time by being able to appear anywhere at any time in any form. She is one of those types of characters whose actions just aren't explained, so the story can get away with more laughs without having to justify her newest crazy joke. This has given the artistic community LOTS of creative freedom. Artists commonly draw Pinkie crossing over into other shows, games and movies.
This crazy little creature has proven to be endlessly entertaining. She bounces around like wind-up toy with infinite batteries, she squeaks like a rubber chicken when she gets squeezed or thrown around, and she flies in the face of all the bullcrap the PC Police have been shoving down our throats the last decade. Making the Cookie Monster eat vegetables? PAH! Pinkie lives and works in a goddamn bakery, and she isn't afraid of her sweet tooth.
Pinkie is just so fun to watch…and so genuinely entertaining.
But she doesn't have much in the way of identifiable personality does she?
Out of all the Ponies in Equestria, Pinkie is without a doubt the most difficult to try and figure out. The very idea of trying to logically understand and critique a character like Pinkie is utterly redundant, I mean, how do you analysis something like her? Do you go by her entertainment value? Her similarity to real world people? Her relationships with the others? She's like a friggen Looney Tune who has wandered away from the group for christ sake.
Writing this I actually had to think really hard about a subject matter. Her personality is straightforward enough. Her interaction with the others almost always ends up with them dismissing her as the giggling party animal she is. There's just nothing to go on. She's a completely random element dropped into the mix. Like an angry wasp in a cake, or Charles Manson as male nurse. She's a joke character, made to lighten the mood wherever she goes and she does it with an endless well of energy.
But then, perhaps that's the point? Maybe she is less of a character and more like an entity that when pointed in the right direction, creates a situation that yields the desired results? NOW we are getting somewhere!
The Pie is a character used very strategically. If you over expose her screen time, she loses the novelty of being a jack-in-the-box and runs the risk of becoming tiresome, so her episodes have been varied and dispersed so far throughout the season. Because of this, those times when you DO see her feel like you've been smacked in the face with an Atom Bomb of awesome. This general rule applies to all the characters, but it affects Pinkie especially because her whole purpose is more about making you laugh than picking through her personality traits for the sake of learning the lesson of the episode. Funny things get less funny alot quicker the more see them over and over again.
"But oh magnificent Space Frog!"
I hear you cry…
"Pinkie has been a central character in several episodes and is often a crucial part of communicating that episodes point."
True, but remember that it is never really Pinkie that learns anything from these events. For example, in "Swarm of the Century" she is the one who knew all along how to really get rid of the bothersome Parasprites, but was constantly ignored because of her lack of consistency with the known universe (which is really no-one's fault but her own). Then after she saves the day with her one-pony marching band, it's all the OTHER ponies that have to acknowledge that they were wrong. Pinkie never really learned anything for herself, but she did help the others to understand that it can be beneficial to think and look outside the box for the solution to your problem. She was an element, not a character, a force implemented by the developers that pushed the other pony's points of view in a new and helpful direction.
I'm sure there is a technical name for what I have just described, but I don't know what it is so here's one I made up.
To a child obviously none of this matters. But to those of us who have become hooked on the show, it helps to understand things like this about our pony friends. (Fun fact! This statement can be thrown like a blanket over these silly articles I write!)
Now, all of this is not to say that it would not be interesting if Pinkie DID start being personalised on a deeper level. This is proven by "The Cutie Mark Chronicles", which sheds some light on Pinkie back story.
Turns out she was an unhappy little filly who grew up working on a rock quarry. Who'da thunk it? Every day was hard work. No laughing. No talking, just movin' those rocks day after day under the watchful eye of her mother and father who were channelling the spirit of a stuck up hag and an Amish gravedigger respectively.
But the faraway Sonic Rainboom of a young Rainbow Dash made Pinkie realise that Jack Nicholson was right after all….
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
From that point on, life was a 24/7 rollercoaster for the petite pink party pony and her life has been all the better for it.
An extremely noteworthy episode called "Feeling Pinkie Keen" is worth mentioning. It was an episode where Pinkies personality genuinely clashed with that of another's….namely Twilights.
Apparently, Pink has the ability to randomly predict certain events, like something falling from the sky or a door swinging open unexpectedly. She predicts the events by way of involuntary body twitches, which could come and go at any time. What makes this episode REALLY interesting is that the storywriters got a little bold and decided to use Pinkie to help illustrate what it would be like to pit someone who is, for all intents and purposes, a goofy psychic…against someone who is basically a complete Atheist.
It was very cool to see both characters dance delicately around the subject without ever confirming what they were actually talking about. Twilight…representing the logical but narrow minded point of view…literally stands up on an actual soapbox and gives a very smug speech about how everything can be explained and that there is basically no such thing as the supernatural. Whilst Pinkie…representing the weird but spiritually open side of the fence…continues to predict random events with total confidence.
Twilight's judgmental attitude backfires time and time again when she tempts fate and questions Pinkies accuracy, but Pinkie also doesn't do herself any favours in convincing Twilight that it's worth listening to her at all.
In the end, Twilight comes around and accepts that even though it might be weird, even though she doesn't understand it, that doesn't mean she should look down her nose at someone whose philosophy, has enriched their lives for the better. She may still not totally agree with Pinkies odd methods, but that doesn't mean nobody has the right to believe in them at all. You just have to choose for yourself what to believe.
It was a VERY clever episode, one that not only personalises Pinkie a bit more but handles a sensitive topic in a very smart way. It was superbly constructed and remains one of my favourites.
Pinkamina Dianne Pie has proven herself to be endlessly entertaining. With a boundless well of energy, she sings and parties her way across the land, spreading happiness and fun with a smile that stretches from ear to ear.
She breaks the fourth wall, appears at random places in the funniest of ways, and proves that even though someone has an utterly batshit INSANE personality, they can still prove to be one of your most valuable allies.
She who holds the element of laughter has helped us to remain cheerful and optimistic. Because when you can giggle at the ghosties, life seems immediately brighter.
Here are some clips of Pinkie doing whatever it is she does!
-The montage
-Shes an evil enchantress!
-An 8-bit version of giggle at the ghosties!
(I take no credit for any art, video's or pictures. Neither does Pinkie)

Training Camp Notes
I spent some of the day at Rexall watching the Oilers players and prospects scrimmage. The NHL players still look like NHL players, the skill prospects are small and the big prospects lack skill and on and on it goes.
Well, not really.
There are some nice signs for Oiler fans. I have two points to make before going any further:
1. I'm a fan. I don't see the game the way scouts and coaches and pro hockey players see it, so nuance is not going to come from me. On top of that I don't put as much importance on "saw him good" as many others so the impressions I get are funneled through some other things (like stats, where the player is on the development curve, etc) so don't expect any broad statements like "they need to trade this guy."
2. It's the first damn day.
- Stoll: Looked very good to me, skated miles in his scrimmage and scored a goal scorer's goal (on a nifty feed from Nilsson).
- Smid: He looked relaxed with the puck and making decisions, and had more of a physical element to his play today.
- Penner: He looked tired compared to the others, possibly because he hasn't had as much time off. Missed the net on the breakaway, but did do some Frank Mahovlich type things when he was out there (he wore #27).
- Greene: He's certainly big and strong, and mobile. Made the usual number of good plays and head scratchers we've come to expect from him.
- Horcoff: Looked good to me. Bulled his way into scoring opportunities and forechecked like a demon.
- Hemsky: My God what a beautiful hockey player. They had him on D for a long period (possibly because Souray wasn't playing but I'm not certain). Anyway he scored a goal almost before I sat down and made everyone else look like they were on a PTO.
- Moreau: Chopper was Chopper. Missed the net a bunch, had a Forsberg moment where he owned the puck and looked dangerous until Gilbert reached out and tapped it away. It was kind of funny, good to see the big man back.
- Staios: Stood out in the first scrimmage as the best overall defender in all three parts of the ice. He's a really good hockey player.
- Reasoner: Took every FO I can recall against Stoll and won as many as he lost iirc. They had him at center and some other centers at wing which I think is an important observation from today.
- Nilsson: He looked very skilled and pretty small. He isn't 5-11. He's a terrific skill player, made a wonderful pass to Stoll for his goal. Can't check his hat, he grabbed Colin McDonald's shirt and held on for the most hilarious penalty I personally have ever seen. He scored a goal later, seemed to play well with Stoll.
- Sanderson: Scored an open net goal, looked fast and maybe a little bored. I think he may be able to help, but my guess is he won't help 1.5M worth.
- Torres: Looked like Raffi to me. He shot the puck a lot, he was physical and he made things happen. I was surprised by the negative overall feeling about the guy in the stands, he's a better hockey player than the people I overheard think he is.
- Tarnstrom: Played very well I thought, scored a nice goal and looked like an NHL player skating around some guys who wandered onto the ice.
- Pitkanen: He skates wonderfully. Looks calm with the puck and carries the play well. He has good size and closes the gap nicely. I'm really convinced now he'll play top pairing.
- Thoresen: Was a freak out there today. Seriously. If they had asked me to pick a star on the day it would be this guy. Looked dangerous every time he was on the ice.
- Garon: He was solid. Plays angles well and he's really good at reading the play. Offers a different look than Roli, I think they'll be a nice combination.
- Roloson: Looked good, the only flaw being a Pouliot goal that showed he's either rusty or Pouliot added a foot to his slapshot this summer.
- Souray: Didn't play that I saw.
- Pouliot: Had a very nice game. Played with Schremp for a time and they looked good together, and took a beauty feed from Cogliano on his goal. He's a really good player, I honestly don't see why people question him being good enough to make the team. PLayed RW.
Minor Leaguers
- Stortini: He looked really good. Played on a big line (with I believe Horcoff and Penner) and scored a goal.
- Dubnyk: He gave up a point blank goal to Stoll on the Nilsson beauty feed and then was slow to see the puck in a scrum in front of the net. He looked really big, and slow.
- Cogliano: A lot of effort and a lot of easy plays for the D. Cogliano didn't look ready in terms of moves but he has plenty of speed for the NHL game. I like him a lot.
- O'Marra: Best non-NHLer today imo. Big, fast, played the game with aggression in all areas but was under control. Very impressive.
- Jacques: He skated around a lot and bumped a little, but he doesn't look like a confident player at this time.
- Grebeshkov: A nice player. Had good mobility, passed the puck very well and made excellent decisions with or without the puck. If this is typical he'll be in the NHL this year.
- Rick Berry: Looked like an AHL guy. Dominated the kids and was exposed by the NHLers.
- Glenn Fisher: He played well. Based on today, he's a much better goalie than his resume implies.
- Roy: Played a steady game, the kind we've seen before from him. Easy to get lost in the mix, but he's a valuable RH defender on this team.
- Andy Contois: Never noticed him.
- Deslauriers: Looked good, he is a very active goalie. I like watching him, he looked confident.
- Rohlfs: He's really freaking big. He's also pretty fast. I think he might be a pretty good pro.
- Syvret: He played a quiet game, made good decisions with the puck and didn't make any mistakes. Didn't make any impact plays either, though.
- Plante: He's hurt, didn't play. Back, maybe.
- Almtorp: He's a pretty good player and he'll get lots of notice from the coach. Maybe the best back checker among the minor leaguers I saw today.
- Freddie Johansson: I was impressed with him today. I don't think he has any chance to make the big club but he can do some things.
- Micflikier: He did some things with the puck when he had it but this is a level or two beyond him imo.
- Berube: Can't recall seeing him.
- Ben Simon: Didn't make any mistakes, made a couple of nice plays in neutral zone.
- Peckham: He's a big kid with all kinds of promise. Moved the puck pretty well and is a very physical kid.
- Bryan Pitton: He didn't look like much during the drills and struggled a bit during the game. He's not ready for this level, but this level is outstanding in goal.
- Brodziak: He was a hair behind Thoresen for the "best player of the day" imo. He's a smart player with some size and seasoning. I bet he's pleased with his day. Played RW.
- Allan Rourke: Didn't notice him, doesn't make it a bad thing.
- Stamler: Haven't a clue.
- McGinnis: Nothing. Not one damn thing.
- Huxley: Got into a fight early, so I noticed him a little (I think he fought Flinn). Gave up maybe 6 inches but hung in there plenty.
- Chwedoruk: Didn't see him do anything.
- Colin McDonald: O lord, I like him again. He's not as big as some of the other Coke Machines and he needs a year in the AHL (at least), but he does some nice things. Battles, has average to above average speed and handles the puck well. Good passer.
- Trukhno: I think he might be hurt. He was the slowest forward out there today either way, but he had a very nice point blank chance early and got an assist later on the Pouliot goal. Nothing about his day tells me he can't play, unless that is his top end speed.
- DePape: I don't remember, I don't recall.
- Bisaillon: He was okay. You notice him because of his size and shot, but he seems to make good decisions too.
- Derek Leblanc: Don't know.
- Tim Sestito: Scored a goal, but I was on the phone.
- TJ Reynolds: Noticed him a little, made some nice plays off the rush without the puck.
- Ryan Flinn: He's a big guy, strong as an ox.
- Troy Bodie: Faster than I thought he'd be, and he's big. I don't know which of these big wingers will end up with an NHL career, but if it's Bodie I wouldn't be surprised.
- Spurgeon: A smart, heady hockey player. Gets it. If he has an NHL career it'll be down the road apiece, but there's some nice things here.
- Kytnar: I noticed him a lot, he's got terrific instincts. This guy is way better than he has any right to be based on age and draft pedigree.
- Quist: Raw. A project. However, there's some unique qualities to him.
- Jordan Foreman: Wouldn't know him if he robbed me right now.
- Todd Scott: Seee Foreman.
- TJ Kemp: Had some big hits, didn't look out of place to me.
- Matt Pepe: Never saw him.
- Nick Holden: Was he there?
- Bryan Young: He looks calm. Really calm. And smart.
- Tom Gilbert: If I WAS a person who believed in "saw him good", I'd be saying that they cannot send him out this fall. He definitely fits in with the NHL defenders here. Tom Gilbert is an excellent hockey player. Right now.
- Goulet: This is the big guy, right? He had I believe Sanderson along the boards for about an hour and didn't do much. Needs to be way more aggressive.
- Karamnov: I liked him. Saw him on the PK a lot and even though he was the smallest guy out there he showed some things. Sign the guy.
- Paige: Musta been sleeping.
- Dobek: Nothing.
- Paukovich: He's a big man, no doubt. Blocked off the D pretty well and moved the puck when he had the chance, cycled well. Based on today, he's a player of interest.
- Reddox: Mixed it up a little, I was hoping for more.
- Kronschnabel: Didn't notice him.
- Schremp: Looked good to me, very good. The game at this level has slowed down enough for him to make plays and he's aggressive with the puck. A "holler" guy in that he wants that puck, but credit where due he drives to the net when he gets it.
- Sam Gagner: He showed well for a guy giving up a lot of weight and experience to pretty much everyone else on the ice. Staios flattened him, he held his own in FO circle.
If I forgot anyone, post it and I'll make up something. Later days.

An alligator in Arizona is learning to swim again after receiving a prosthetic tail. "Mr. Stubbs" was missing his tail before he was rescued by Phoenix Herpetological Society. They say he probably lost it after another alligator bit it off. Without a tail, Mr. Stubbs could only dog paddle and was in danger of drowning in his pond. After hearing about Mr. Stubbs, Dr. Marc Jacofsky and his research associate Sarah Jarvis decided to try creating a prosthetic tail for him. Researchers from The CORE Institute and Midwestern University worked with alligator specimens to work out the appropriate size of tail for Mr. Stubbs. The prosthesis is covered in Dragon Skin, a lightweight, flexible silicone material used for special effects and animatronics in movies, in addition to prosthetics.A harness system was created to keep the tail on Mr. Stubbs' body without creating pressure points, discomfort or eventual skin breakdown. The tale has already improved the alligator's movement, but Mr. Stubbs is still adjusting to swimming with the tail. "After almost eight years, we need to 'unteach' him the dog paddle, so he can swim like a normal alligator," said Russ Johnson, spokesperson for PHS.

FORT MYERS: Texting behind the wheel is a big problem and lawmakers in Florida have been pushing to a law to ban the act. But at least one state leader says a texting ban may not happen in Florida.
While the wheels of your car are moving, Dorothy Taylor says she believes your fingers shouldn't be texting.
"I can't tell you how many times I have had to swerve off the road you look back and they are just texting away," she said.
But despite the warnings, people still text and drive.
According to the National Safety Council, 28 percent of traffic accidents occur when people talk on the phone or send text messages while driving.
It's such huge problem in Florida, 17 bills have been introduced to ban it. None of them have passed and State Representative Gary Aubuchon of Cape Coral says the ban will fail this year too.
He says the bill won't pass because the more conservative legislature is focusing on creating jobs and balancing the budget. He believes lawmakers shouldn't legislate personal responsibilities.
He says texting and driving is a problem brought about by technology. He says that he believes technology will solve the problem as more devices are being made and installed in cars to prevent people from texting while driving.
But for those at AAA, that technology isn't coming fast enough.
"We are not going to stop until it does pass," said David Pojero of AAA. "Why not pass it and at least keep a handful or a whole bunch of people safe?"

WAUSAU, WI (WTAQ) - A central Wisconsin sheriff says he'll retire soon, as his wife could be heading to prison for stealing painkillers.
Marathon County Sheriff Randy Hoenisch told reporters Friday he was planning to retire in April – but he thought he'd better leave sooner.
His wife Kim is scheduled to be sentenced in late April, after pleading no contest to burglary and the theft of pills from offenders she supervised as a former state probation agent. She faces up to 18 months behind bars, and Hoenisch says he plans to spend full-time with his family once his retirement paperwork is complete.
He's been the sheriff in Wausau since 2001.
Recently, the Wausau Daily Herald found that Hoenisch had only spent two hours in his office since the first of the year. He admitted spending more time with his wife, trying to get her off painkillers.
But Hoenisch said the report was not fair, because it did not reflect time he spent in the community and at training sessions. Still, he said it's not fair for his deputies to face distractions – and it's another reason he felt it was right to leave office now.
The 57-year-old Hoenisch has been with the Marathon County sheriff's department for four decades.

Joseph Goodhue Chandler (American, 1813-1884)
Third Meeting House, South Hadley, oil on canvas, 1876.
Mount Holyoke College Art Museum , South Hadley, Massachusetts.
Gift of Mrs. Thomas E. Brown, Jr.
The South Hadley Historical Society exists to preserve and illuminate the history of this wonderful New England town, founded in 1753. The Society operates the Old Firehouse Museum in the area of South Hadley known as the Falls. The Society has also undertaken efforts to restore and preserve two of the oldest homes in the community: The Sycamores and the Rawson Home, which are located within the Woodbridge Street District, a Federally-designated historic district.
We would love to welcome you to our Society -
Please Join the South Hadley Historical Society.
Visit our Blog
for constantly updated information
about South Hadley history and the Society.
South Hadley began as a parish of Hadley and was incorporated as a town in 1753 by action of the General Court (legislature) of Massachusetts.
"This town was settled as early as 1721 by a few families from Hadley. It was then called the South Precinct in Hadley. The first settlers for some time continued to attend public worship on the Sabbath in Hadley, a distance of about 7 or 8 miles. In 1733 the first town meeting as a separate district was held, and it was resolved that a meeting-house, the frame of which was put up the year before, should be in part finished. The building, however, was not completed until the close of the year 1737." - History And Antiquities of Every Town In Massachusetts, by John Warner Barber, 1848
The Nation's first commercially successful navigable canal began operation in South Hadley in 1795. The South Hadley Canal provided the route for much of the commerce along the Connecticut River for many decades until 1862, when development of the railroads made the canal less profitable. Remains and remnants of the canal are still visible and efforts are underway to enhance their historic character.
The first confirmed evidence of a dinosaur to be found in North America was unearthed in South Hadley by Pliny Moody while plowing in 1802. The sandstone slab bearing large, mysterious footprints was later purchased by Elihu Dwight, who gave the prints the name of "Noah's Raven." Professor Edward Hitchcock then obtained the slab, which is now on prominent display in the Amherst College Museum of Natural History.
The nation's oldest continuing institution of higher education for women, Mount Holyoke College, opened its doors in 1837 as Mount Holyoke Seminary under the stewardship of Mary Lyon. One of the "Seven Sisters" all women's colleges in New England, Mount Holyoke College continues to operate as an all-women's institution.

Fort Detrick in the 21st Century
Fort Detrick today is a U.S. Army Medical Command installation supporting a multi-agency community. Approximately 5,800 military, federal, and contractor personnel are assigned there. They conduct biomedical research and development, medical materiel management, and defense communications. Each of the military services is represented. The Commanding General, U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (USAMRMC), is the installation commander.
The USAMRMC was established in 1994 as a major subordinate command of the Army Medical Command during the reorganization of the Army Medical Department. The reorganization expanded the former U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command, adding medical logistics and health facility planning to its mission. Realignment of the U.S. Army Garrison under the USAMRMC followed, improving management efficiency and allowing consolidation of support functions.
The USAG, Fort Detrick provides installation support to DoD and non-DoD tenant organizations. Among its services the Garrison furnishes financial management; civilian and military personnel; quality of life programs; legal services; housing management; security, fire, and emergency services; building maintenance; and logistical support to the USAMRMC and tenant activities.
The USAMRMC is responsible for life cycle management of medical materiel, from basic laboratory research through advanced development, prototyping, procurement, delivery to units, maintenance and disposal. The USAMRMC is responsible for planning, programming, and budgeting for construction of Army medical facilities and for corporate information management and information technology requirements of the Army Medical Department.
As the Department of Defense's lead laboratory for medical biological defense, the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases conducts basic research leading to the development of vaccines, drugs, diagnostics, and information to protect U.S. service members from biological warfare threats. The institute is a world-renowned reference laboratory for definitive identification of biological threat agents and diagnosis of the diseases they produce.
The U.S. Army Medical Materiel Development Activity manages the advanced development of new medical products, including the conduct of clinical trials and submission of applications for approval of new products by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The U.S. Army Medical Materiel Agency is the Army Surgeon General's executive agent for strategic medical logistics programs and initiatives. The USAMMA's mission is to enhance medical logistics readiness throughout the full range of military health service support missions worldwide, develop and implement innovative concepts and technologies, and advance medical logistics information and knowledge. The USAMMA coordinates with the Air Force, Navy, and Joint/DoD medical logistics agencies that are also located at Fort Detrick.
The Air Force Medical Logistics Office mission is to lead and deliver innovative solutions to meet the challenges of global health. AFMLO integrates Joint Service Active and Reserve Air Force Components to deploy and sustain warfighting capabilities through focused logistics as defined by Joint Vision 2020.
The Naval Medical Logistics Command directs and manages logistical and materiel systems, and coordinates health care services contracting policy and procedures for the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery during peacetime and contingency conditions. The NMLC's Fleet Hospital Program provides comprehensive medical support to the Fleet and Fleet Marine Forces engaged in combat operations.
The Joint Readiness Clinical Advisory Board, formerly known as the Defense Medical Standardization Board, is a joint activity of the DoD. The JRCAB's major missions include: joint selection and standardization of medical materiel for in-theater care during the initial 2 months of an armed conflict, and providing clinical, technical, and logistical expertise to ensure that quality medical materiel is available to the services.
The Joint Medical Logistics Functional Development Center (JMLFDC) focuses on modeling and simulation to ensure coordination and integration among the programs of the JRCAB, the USAMMA, the NMLC, and the AFMLO.
The U.S. Army Medical Information Systems and Services Agency is a subordinate command of the USAMRMC. The USAMISSA provides full life cycle management for information systems and information technology services to the AMEDD and other government clients, from needs assessments to acquisition and/or development, through operations and sustainment. The organization has offices at Fort Detrick, Maryland; San Antonio, Texas; Washington, DC; and Falls Church, Virginia. USAMISSA strives to solve client's information challenges with leading-edge technology solutions and customer-focused business practices.
The Armed Forces Medical Intelligence Center is a field production activity of the Defense Intelligence Agency and the sole DoD producer of medical intelligence. The center provides all-source intelligence on worldwide infectious diseases and environmental health risks, foreign military and civilian health care systems and infrastructures, and foreign biomedical development and life science technologies of military medical significance.
The 1108th U.S. Army Signal Brigade is a subordinate command of the U.S. Army Signal Command. On September 14, 1998, the brigade headquarters relocated from Fort Ritchie, Maryland to Fort Detrick, due to the closing of Fort Ritchie under Base Realignment and Closure. The brigade provides command, control, communications, computer, and visual information systems to the DoD and other federal agencies supporting the warfighter.
Fort Detrick is an Army Community of Excellence, an employer of choice, and a good neighbor to the Frederick community.

In an internship, a student can learn experientially at a social institution, cultural organization, community-based organization or corporation, gaining firsthand work experience, learning about the activities in a particular setting, developing skills and knowledge that may lead to later employment and exploring connections between academic ideas and practical knowledge. Internships are a key element of the Gallatin program, and they are often among the most memorable and useful student experiences. An internship is a credit-bearing work experience in a non-classroom environment, and internships are typically unpaid positions, although students in paid positions are permitted to receive credit.
Internships are available in a variety of areas, including business, education, legal services, journalism, film and theater. Some examples of internships include:
The possibilities are endless. Gallatin students can avail themselves of the vast resources of New York City, which provide a myriad of opportunities for practical experience and fieldwork. Each semester many students are placed in internships with organizations such as Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, Bellevue Hospital Center, Manhattan Theatre Club, 20/20 (ABC-TV), Capitol Records, Sony, Inc., Working Woman Magazine, and Merrill Lynch. These placements are just a small sampling of the many interesting and challenging internships that help undergraduate students obtain hands-on training in their fields.

- An ok place in downtown BethesdaPorkmedallionDined on 9/21/2014There is nothing very wrong with Redwood, which is its principal attraction. It is a good option for visitors to NIH or Walter Reed, for example, because the diverse menu, which includes a reasonable number of gluten-free options, should have something for everyone.Special Features:
- Redwood is just greatccfoodzVIPDined on 9/20/2014Sat near tbe bar and had great dinner service from the bartender! The menu choices are great and everything was delicious. I or deserved the tuna tartar and the grilled brussel sprouts. Both were very well prepped. Highly Recommend!!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ElaineVIPDined on 9/19/2014Our waiter and the chef went out of their way to change the salade nicoise to accommodate my allergy to chili pepper. We were grateful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Disappointing brunchFoodieGirlDined on 9/14/2014Have enjoyed many happy hours and dinners at Redwood so tested out the brunch. Very disappointing selection, variety and quality of food. Many items listed on the menu for brunch were not on display, certain food items don't belong in a buffet like salad or fried brussel sprouts that are supposed to be crispy since they get soggy very quickly, and service was slow even though they were not nearly at capacity. One redeeming aspect was the live jazz trio - they were fantastic! Plenty of better brunch options in Bethesda like Cafe Deluxe or Mon Ami Gabi... don't waste your time here unless you order a la carte.
- Good food, slow serviceGoTerpsDined on 9/12/2014Food was very good. We sat outside because there was a large group and someone with a mic inside and it was very noisy. After 25 minutes we had to ask for a waiter to take our order and no one ever came to check on us and then we had to ask for someone to give us a check. Total time for lunch was 90 minutesSpecial Features:
- Lunch at RedwoodMamatweegaVIPDined on 9/12/2014It was a beautiful day to eat lunch outside. While the menu is on the small side the shrimp salad and the tuna salad that we ordered were attractive and tasty. There could have been a little more menu choices, especially on the desert side but all in all it was a good meal in a lovely spot.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good but not great valuemaxinetteVIPDined on 9/10/2014The chopped salad was very good, but small. 2x the lettuce would have made all the difference. Needed to get a snack after lunch.
- Buffet Brunch does not disappoint4mercustVIPDined on 9/7/2014Excellent food. Omelets are amazing. Daughter wanted a waffle bar. Food was fresh and healthy and certainly plentiful.Special Features:
- It was averagemnkyboyVIPDined on 9/6/2014I enjoyed the meal but there wasn't anything special about it. I got the duck & it was eh. It was only seasoned around the edge. The seasoning didn't carry through the duck. My husband got the filet & it was good. The bernaise sauce was very good.
- Feels like vacation...OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 9/5/2014That's what we all said to each other, sitting outside on the lovely pedestrian walk/street on a balmy Bethesda night. The waiter was attentive, he made a great wine recomendation and the steak salad was delicious. It's a treat to be able to sit outside, but it's also delightful to sit inside.

- Terrible serviceBethesda25Dined on 8/23/2014Though the food was good, the service was terrible. We told the waiter at the beginning of the meal that we needed to be out in ~50 minutes to catch a movie, and we missed the first 20 minutes of the movie (and had to take our dessert to go in a bag).Special Features:

- Good food but...Nana7VIPDined on 8/21/2014The food was good but the service was slow (except the busboy, who made sure our water glasses were always full) and the noise level made it difficult to carry on a conversation. Perhaps if they hadn't put 2 large parties next to each other, this would have been less of a problem.Special Features:
- first timerfoodieforlifeDined on 8/17/2014The food was good, the waiter was personable and knowledgeable about the items on the menu. The only downer was they ran out of salmon and two of my guest had to choose something else.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Sunday BrunchDoubleDDined on 8/17/2014We booked reservations for a Sunday, as we wanted to try Redwood for restaurant week. We were unaware that the restaurant week menu would not be available on a Sunday, we were informed upon arrival. Oh well. We still enjoyed our experience. Service was speedy and attentive, food was absolutely delicious, and the ambiance was very nice, loved the acoustic guitar trio, that added such a lovely touch! We will definitely be back for another brunch.Special Features:
- Lousy BrunchLBandDAOVIPDined on 8/17/2014We have had several enjoyable dinners at Redwood, so it was an ideal choice for brunch on the patio one lovely Sunday morning. The buffet was a huge disappointment. While the there was a large variety of choices, the food quality was simply not what I expected. The grilled vegetables were inedible, the bagels pre-toasted and cold, most of the hot food was luke warm at best, and the staff at the carving station/omelet station (same person, as far as we could tell) would clearly rather have been somewhere else. On the plus side, the setting was really nice and our server - working his first Sunday morning - was friendly and enthusiastic. We'll go back for dinner, but brunch is not their sweet spot
- UnusualUnusualVIPDined on 8/16/2014With our family, Redwood has a history of being consistent, creative and memorable. This past Saturday our experience sadly did not meet our expectations. The staff did work very hard to manage the challenges! They even articulated to us, their concerns... still it just was not their usual and was exacerbated by an uncorrected over billing, on their part... I do hope to forget this ever happened and conclude that it was just an anomaly ... only to hope that a return will be met with success!Special Features:
- Dinner at RedwoodTMBIDined on 8/16/2014Our reservations were honored on time, and we were given a nice table by an open window. Service was excellent, and our waiter was attentive ad helpful. The food was good and all four of us enjoyed our meals. Our friends were from out of town, so we enjoyed the opportunity to eat and talk unrushed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice Evening OutGWpfVIPDined on 8/15/2014Redwood is a solid choice, particularly for the pleasant outdoor dining. We had not been there in awhile and the food seemed to have improved, though it is just solid, nothing particularly special. We had excellent service with a terrific young server, and all n all a very nice evening out.Special Features:

- De-LishOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/14/2014Came here for restaurant week. Had a great variety for restaurant week selections. It was a beautiful night so we sat outside, and there was plenty of outside seating. The food was very amazing!! Would definitely return for a special occasion, especially since the entree prices are a little more expensive than for a causal night out kind of dinner.Special Features:
- Bad food, high misleading pricesGeneDined on 8/13/2014For restaurant week they put an up charge on almost every item and the meal turned out to be more expensive than usual. Food was not good, tasted like it was made out of plastic. Drinks mediocre, place overhyped.
- Good Restaurant Week menuJessicaDined on 8/13/2014There was plenty of selection on the Restaurant Week menu and everyone in our 10-person group found something that they enjoyed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dinner varietyOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/12/2014Great variety on the dinner menu, without overloading with options. Steak, Fish, vegetarian were all there, and all unique from what you find elsewhere. They even made the Brussel Sprouts taste good! I also recommend the cheese plate up front.Special Features:
- Normally good but hit an off nightJfk66VIPDined on 8/10/2014I've eaten at Redwood several times and it's been good. This last time it was a comedy of errors a bit. Three of us ordered the seared tuna salad and two of us had grit in the lettuce. We told the waiter and he just said he would tell the chef. My husband was hungry and just wanted to eat it. One friend ordered coffee and it was cold and two of us ordered decaf and it was incredibly bitter. The good part was the hummus plate turned out to be a great thing to share and my friend really enjoyed his chicken dish. I still think they have good food but it was an off night.Special Features:
- Great food, lackluster serviceDivaLDubDined on 7/31/2014A party of 8 of us went for lunch- we had a reservation but didn't really need one since the place was empty. The service was unimpressive. Our server was only semi-knowledgeable about the menu and was not enthusiastic about any of the menu choices. I asked him to elaborate on the wine list, knowing that Redwood focuses on sourcing fromo small vinters, but he had no further information or recommendations. We also asked him if any of the cocktails were a signature, he had no comment. Even though the service left much to be desired, the food was excellent! The wings were outstanding, the hummus was delicious, and the veggie burger with goat cheese was wonderful!Special Features:
- New chef is greatDphkmhDined on 7/27/2014Redwood has changed chef sometime in the past few months and it's better than ever
- Limited dinner menumusselsDined on 7/22/2014the place is huge and the location is a promenade with retail stores on both sides below apartment rentals ideal for outdoor dining. A bit noisy near the bar but a quiet place is found towards the opposite end. food is not the greatest. I ordered mussels in their dinner entree which were small but in great quantity, accompanied by fries that were not the best. Price is reasonable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- chcheatschcheatsDined on 7/19/2014I have been to Redwood a number of times, and it's always been fine, not great. But on this visit, the food was inedible. I ordered a burger with a side salad, and my husband ordered the branzino. Our food arrived about five minutes after we ordered it. We were both stunned, as if the food had just been sitting there ready to take out. The burger was terrible -- the meat had a strange smell, more like lamb than beef. And the side salad was dripping with dressing, and the green were gritty. Mu husband's fish was tasteless. I ate about three bites of my meal. I will not ever return to Redwood. It was truly disgusting.
- I won't return.ChefWhoDinesOutVIPDined on 7/18/2014Doesn't live up to the hype. As a chef who dines out, I know this industry backward and forward. All of the food lacked seasoning, and the service was so boring I almost fell asleep. The meal came out like this: our cheese/charcuterie platter came out, then immediately came our appetizers, so we had to combine what was left of our platter on our app plates, and the same story with our entrees. I literally stuffed a last bite of appetizer in my mouth so the food runner could put the entree down. In addition, we waited for 20 minutes even WITH our reservation, & they told me at the bar that they could not/would not transfer a drink to the dining room, so I would have to drink & pay for it in the bar. Disappointment.Special Features:
- Very pleasant spotsmurfetteDined on 7/18/2014I arranged lunch for a small group of friends - six in all - and requested a round table, which was provided. The service was excellent and everyone enjoyed what was ordered. I live within walking distance of Redwood; I've been there before and will definitely return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Varied menuLeamsiDined on 7/16/2014The food is always good at Redwood and the portions are not over the top. My friend had scallops with Kale and citrus which looked wonderful. I had salmon which was superb on polenta.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Brunch: great if you're very hungryBetsyVIPDined on 7/13/2014We went to Redwood for brunch, for the first time in several years. I'm a bit ambivalent in reviewing. The a la carte brunch menu was limited, particularly for someone trying to stick to whole grains. The buffet was a much better choice in that regard, with quite a variety of options, all very good. But it is expensive, particularly if you really don't want a large meal. So while we enjoyed the food and the outdoor setting, we probably wouldn't go back there for brunch.Special Features:
- good enoughdbeersfineartDined on 7/12/2014This a a decent fall back position when a nicer restaurant with better food is full. I would never make it my first choice. The menu is limited, which is ok, provided that at least a few items among that which is being served are truly outstanding. Not going to happen until the find an inspired chef. They have good beverages/mixed drinks.Special Features:
- Good but PriceylocaldinerDined on 7/11/2014The calamari appetizer was delicious and fresh as was the complementary bread and butter. The wait staff was attentive and charming. But even with two members of the foursome ordering burgers and only getting one appetizer and no dessert, the bill was almost 200 dollars.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DNYFLNJDined on 7/9/2014We went to Redwood to celebrate our anniversary and had a wonderful time. The food was excellent, and the service was attentive but not obtrusive. We at the 3 course prix fixe menu (One appetizer, one entree, and one dessert) and it was fine option, since it allows choice across the whole menu. This was our first trip to the restaurant and will definitely go back. Highly recommendSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

KOOTENAI COUNTY, Idaho -- Deputies responded to an armed robbery north of Hayden early Saturday morning.
Investigators said a man entered the Alpine Country Store in the Garwood area with a handgun around 5 a.m. The clerk at the store told deputies the man stole money from the register, then took off on foot across Highway 95. It was not known how much money was taken.
The Sheriff's Office, assisted by the Coeur d'Alene Police Department and the Idaho State Police, set up a perimeter around the store and a K9 was called to the scene to begin searching for the suspect. The K9 track, however, was unsuccessful.
The suspect was described as being a white male in his mid to late twenties, standing about 5'9" tall and weighing 175 lbs. The man was also described as wearing a dirty gray hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans and black and white tennis shoes. Deputies said the suspect concealed his face with a gray scarf.
Anyone with information in the case was asked to contact the Kootenai County Sheriff's Office.

Comment: My jacket arrived in a timely manner. I measured to fit an XL because I have a large bust for my size. I am 5'1" tall and weigh 113. It provides warmth on the colder days riding. Haven't gotten a chance to right in the nice weather. I would recommend this jacket. It's a great price as well.

The 8306 is made out of premium buffalo leather and is black with black hardware. It's available in sizes small thru three X and the sizing is very accurate per the fitment chart, so make sure to utilize it to find your ideal fitment. Jessica, here, is 5'8'' 145 and fits perfectly in a medium. Let's look at the features, shall we? The closure is constructed using a reinforced YKK metal zipper and the collar has two snaps on either side to keep it from flapping in the wind. If you unsnap the lapels, you can zip the jacket all the way up for a double layer of wind protection. There are zippered hand warmer pockets on either side of the jacket and braided detailing that is contoured to the jacket to add to the feminine look. On the sides, there are gathered leather panels that allow the jacket to conform comfortably to a ladies figure, and the sleeves feature zippered gussets for easy on and off.The back of the jacket is covered in detail. It has black riveted detailing on the lower back and there is more of the contoured braiding we saw on the front.The interior of the 8306 features a removable full sleeve quilted thermal liner with a zippered pocket on one side. On warmer days, you can remove this liner by unzipping it from the shell and unsnapping it from the cuffs of the sleeves. This liner folds up small making it easy to pack into a saddlebag, and removing it exposes a mesh liner that promotes airflow.

Comments about Maurices Denim Flex ™ Sequin embellished flap pocket jeans:
I wear these jeans with sweat shirts or a nice blouse/tank and jacket. The quality is not like Silvers or Vigoss but adequately priced. Maurice's flex is a nice alternative for the time I can't afford my favorite Silvers. I love the narrow bootleg and the wash.
One thing I don't like is that I still need a belt. But that is my weird shape as I need a belt with all my jeans.
When are they making belts that won't bulge underneath shirts?
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Regardless of who wins Saturday's race, the 22nd in the series, Justin Philpott will take the track championship by virtue of his previous performances during the season at Stockton 99. With 1,197 points, Justin finishes an even 200 points ahead of his father, who also has a clear lead for second place in the points standings.
After the Sept. 5 race, the last installment of the track's Tri-Holiday Classic, Justin was out of reach of all other competitors, including his father. Saturday's race will determine who finishes in third place, with Frank Farran of Ione and Vito Ranuio of Stockon tied with 873 points.
Justin claimed the checkered flag in four races this year. His father won seven races, but started off the season slow. David said that at the start of the year, he'd try out new components on his No. 50 Monte Carlo, and typically didn't finish a race, at least for the first part of the season.
"If I don't win, I normally park it or crash it, or something goes wrong," he said.
Justin said he had only two races that he didn't finish, and when his closest competition in the points standings missed a couple of races, it gave him a strong lead. Soon only his father with his string of wins was likely to close in on him. Justin still couldn't take that lead for granted until after the Sept. 5 race.
"Of 20 cars, there were probably 15 that you would call top dogs, who come from different race tracks, real fast cars that make it difficult," he said. "But I'd rather have it that way than go out there and have a win every week."
It's Justin's second season at Stockton 99. In 2006, he earned Rookie of the Year honors in the last year before the track closed. The Philpotts raced at the half-mile track at Altamont Raceway Park last year, but that track closed at the same time Stockton 99 reopened.
The two tracks are different just in size, with slower speeds on Stockton 99 quarter-mile, but also less room to pass, which gives the advantage to those who do well in qualifying and can start at the front of the pack.
"It's barely wide enough to be two wide," Justin said. "When you wreck, there's no way to get out of the way. I think I won two of them by starting on the pole. It's a lot easier, but I've started in back a couple times and got past them."
The Philpotts haven't confirmed their plans for next year. Justin's track championship gains him a place in January's All-Star Showdown at Toyota Speedway in Irwindale, which will be a sample of the next level up in NASCAR racing.
They took a trip to Irwindale this past weekend so Justin could drive in the Auto Club Late Models race and become familiar with the track and the level of competition.
Whether they can do that on a regular basis depends on whether they can afford it. They can plan to spend several hundred dollars with each race as it is, funded by their sponsor, Tax Brain, a financial software company operated by Petz Enterprises in Tracy.
The cost of just the basics at the next level, like entry fees, are double or triple what they pay now, and they would also have to upgrade parts and equipment, and travel around the Western U.S. to make most of the races.
"It's a lot of fun, but it's really expensive to keep it all going," David said.

Cape Coral Mayor John Sullivan wants to honor Iraq War veterans. He wants to form a committee with the goal of building a monument in the veterans' honor.
Mayor Sullivan says he believes the city should do something special to honor veterans of the Iraq War. And he wants a committee of war veterans to take charge.
During their visit to Cape Coral, the Orourke family – a group of self-proclaimed history buffs – stopped to see the Iwo Jima memorial at Eco Park on Tuesday.
"It was tragic that when Vietnam vets came back, they were actually spit upon and disrespected. We're now in a similar situation," said Michael Orourke.
That is why Mayor Sullivan says he wants to build a new memorial - honoring the Iraq War veterans.
"It would be nice to have Cape Coral be the first in the U.S. to put up this kind of monument," he said.
And to get it done, Sullivan is enlisting the help of some of his influential friends.
"He approached me for two reasons. One, I was a Gulf War vet. And two, I was on the committee to restore the Iwo Jima monument," said Bill Deile, a veteran of the Gulf War.
With Deile on board, Sullivan says he hopes to attract local Iraq War vets to join the committee.
"I want them to take control of it from end to end," Mayor Sullivan said.
Sullivan would serve as the liaison to city council and says that he did have one idea to get the project rolling.
"My first thought is to have a contest in the schools for students to draw up what would be appropriate then let the vets pick which one," he said.
Orourke says he thinks it's a great idea.
"I think it's needed," he said.
And he says he plans to bring his family back to Eco Park if and when the Iraq War memorial is completed.
The next step is to find local Iraq War veterans with the time and willingness to serve on the committee. Then, the group will have to begin fundraising.
Deile says the group won't know who much the memorial will cost until a design is selected.
If you are an Iraq War veteran and you would like to be involved in the memorial project, you can reach Mayor Sullivan at 239-707-1583. You can also email him at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Facebook joining the Nasdaq club?
Sorry, NYSE. Reports say the company's IPO -- expected in May or June -- will put it on the Nasdaq, along with Apple, Google and Microsoft.
By The Associated Press
Facebook will list its shares with Nasdaq, according to media reports.
That would be a big win for the index, which competes fiercely with NYSE Euronext, especially for an initial public offering as large as Facebook's, pegged at $5 billion.
The New York Times and CNBC cited anonymous sources on the potential listing. Calls to Facebook and Nasdaq OMX Group were not immediately returned Friday.
Part of the reason the Nasdaq is considered the more attractive option for Facebook is because of the Internet heavyweights already listed there, which include Apple (AAPL), Google (GOOG) and Microsoft (MSFT). (Microsoft publishes MSN Money.)
NYSE snared LinkedIn's (LNKD) IPO last year. The professional networking site doubled its IPO price in its first day of trading in May 2011 to give it a market value of nearly $9 billion. It was the largest for any Internet company since Google had its IPO in 2004.
Facebook is in another economic sphere. In papers filed in early February, it was disclosed that Facebook's IPO could place the value of the Menlo Park, Calif., company at $100 billion. That would make it one of the world's most valuable companies eight years after it began as a dorm-room startup at Harvard University.
If Facebook can raise $5 billion by selling a small percentage of its shares to the public, as is expected, it will dwarf all preceding Internet IPOs. The final tally will shift with Facebook's bankers gauging demand for those shares on Wall Street.
Joining corporate America's elite would give Facebook financial clout as it tries to make its service even more pervasive and expand its global audience of about 845 million users. The move could also help Facebook fend off a challenge from Google, which wants to rival Facebook as with its own social networking system.
Following the model of Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg set up two classes of stock that will ensure he retains control of Facebook as the sometimes conflicting demands of Wall Street exert new pressures on the company. He will have the final say on how nearly 57% of Facebook's stock votes, according to the company's February filing with the Securities & Exchange Commission.
Facebook is expected to begin trading under the ticker "FB" in May or June.
