Greetings,
On behalf of the Board of Trustees of the National McKinley Birthplace Memorial Association, we thank you for your response to attend the Centennial Gala scheduled on October 14th, 2017. We are so grateful that you want to join us in celebrating not only this truly remarkable occasion but honoring our beloved President William McKinley.
Events and tours are scheduled during the day. The re-dedication ceremony begins at noon and includes speakers and President William Howard Taft. Join us in listening to music from the Niles McKinley High School Band and their choir group, Belles and Beaux.
Unfortunately due to a low response, the Centennial Gala has been cancelled. We have enclosed your reimbursement check and, as a small token of our appreciation, a Christmas ornament honoring the Centennial.
We hope you can join us during our daytime events.
Warmest regards,
James Yuhasz
