Tribute to 2 DOT workers killed in Waterville last week

[Coughlan, Peter]

Hi all,
Please see attached for details about the procession to honor the 2 DOT workers killed in Waterville over a month ago.  It is this Saturday, Feb. 28 starting late morning and proceeding from Fairfield to Augusta Civic Center.  At least 25 towns had responded to me affirmatively a month ago and I understand that may have changed since then for some of you.  There is no need to let me know.....just follow instructions and, note at bottom, that all should remove any wings and plows due to parking issues with State Gold Ball basketball championships happening that day.
THANKS!!

Pete

Hi all,
Would your town/city/company be interested in being part of a tribute to the 2 gentleman who died last week while working on I-95?
The Commissioner is planning to organize a vehicle procession in honor of Dwayne Campbell and James Brown, the two gentlemen that were killed last Tuesday in Waterville. We currently do not have a date set for this event as the families have asked that we hold it after their 2 funerals.
I'm reaching out to municipal and private companies to gauge how much interest there would be in participating in this event with us? If interested, it would involve bringing either a pickup (or sedan) or a dump/plow truck to form a long procession on I-95. Initially we are thinking about leaving from Fairfield, traveling south on I 95, stopping briefly at the bridge where the accident occurred then continuing to the Augusta Civic center for a brief ceremony.
At this time, all I'm asking is if your town or company would be interested in participating with a vehicle so we can judge the magnitude of this event. Once the families make funeral arrangements, we will firm up a date for this event. Thanks for your consideration.
Simply reply to me directly and I will start the list.

Pete
