MEMORIAL TO VETERANS

SOUGHT IN THE

DANA POINT HARBOR

DANA POINT-Marc Ely-Chaitlin and an ad hoc group of Dana Point citizens have met several times informally, to organize support for a memorial in the Dana Point Harbor to American veterans who sacrificed their lives in the service of the country. Last November the proposal to set up a Dana Point memorial was suggested. The response was so strong, that an informal meeting took place, at which it was decided that a suitable location for such a memorial is in the harbor, due to its scenic beauty.

This suggestion was made formally through a letter from Marc Ely-Chaitlin to Supervisor Thomas Wilson, who represents the Fifth District on the Board of Supervisors (and who is also the head of a task force addressing the issues of modernization of the harbor). Supervisor Wilson's response, that the proposal for a memorial in the harbor, "is an interesting idea," is a hopeful beginning. Members of the public who would also like to see a serious memorial to the veterans who lost their lives in the service of our nation, are urged to contact Mr. Thomas Wilson's office, to express their support directly to him and his office. The member of Mr. Wilson's staff who is handling the memorial proposal is Grace Dove, at 834-6793.
