adge oosters And Meritorious Moments BOur 125th building anniversary, B known as the Cornerstone Celebration, is growing and we would like to assist scouts with a series of Badge Boosting (achievement) activities. Please see the attached list of badge opportunities (Tigers through to Eagle) for more information. Several activities require preregistration. Interviews— June 2, 2018, is the celebration of the historical Richardsonian Romanesque Revival Style Armory’s 125-year anniversary. The Cleveland Grays will recognize this event with special exhibits, armory tours, and walkabout excursions of Cleveland’s historic sites. Veterans and active military from all branches will be on-hand to answer questions and accept interviews with preregistered scouts. Architects from the American Institute of Architects will also be on-hand to answer questions and accept interviews with preregistration. Walkabouts— This day celebrates the 125-year anniversary of the 1893 placement of the Cornerstone laying at the foundation of the landmark Cleveland Grays Armory. In recognition of this historic occasion, scouts may register for one of two historic walkabouts. These will include the Armory, Erie Street Cemetery, the Soldiers & Sailors Monument, and various historic sites or Cleveland architecture as well as a few very special surprises. One Behind the Scenes at Playhouse Square Tour is also available with preregistration. Spaces are limited to 25 per tour. Early Registration is highly recommended. Heritage Activities—During the Cornerstone Celebration, a patriotic participation area will contain stations for wrapping care packages, writing deployed soldiers, giving thanks to past and present military, and learning more about early military heritage. Donations for Troops and Veterans— We are partnering with the USO and the Ohio National Guard to “Fill the Hummer” with care package items for deployed soldiers (please see page 3 for a list of the most needed items). In homeless shelters, one of the most requested and least donated items is socks. Today, a growing number of veterans find themselves in homeless shelters. Please bring new sock donations to the Armory on Cornerstone Day. Old Flags will also be accepted for retirement with dignity and respect. Please encourage, collect, and bring donations for USO Care Packages, new socks for Please homeless veterans, and old flags for retirement to this event. use the Preregistration Cleveland Grays Armory Cornerstone Celebration Portal June 2, 2018 Noon-4pm Free & Open to Public to Sign-up. 1234 Bolivar Road • Cleveland Ohio, 44115 • graysarmory.com Preregistration Portal: https://scoutingevent.com/440-ClevelandGrays: Jarrod Blundy, 440-299-8075, [email protected]
