Seaside volunteers weigh plaque sizes and donated boulder for 40th anniversary
Summary
Unidentified Seaside meeting participants reviewed plaque size and finish options and discussed a donated rock to mark a 40th‑anniversary observance. A larger 16x28 plaque was quoted at about $2,030; volunteers also discussed mounting and shipping logistics.
Unidentified meeting participants in Seaside reviewed options for a memorial plaque and the placement of a donated boulder to mark the 40th anniversary of a local group.
The group discussed two plaque sizes — a smaller layout roughly 11x17 (14 inches by 11, per the discussion) and a larger 16x28 option. "It's $2,030," said Speaker 2 when citing the price on the larger plaque. Participants weighed visual prominence against size, and Speaker 2 said the rock for the installation would likely be donated by local residents.
Volunteers described the mounting method: the plaque would come with pins on the back and would be cemented into holes drilled into the rock. Speaker 2 described finish options they were deciding between, saying one finish had more raised lettering and another was a cast look; the group preferred raised letters for durability.
The discussion also referenced shipping and layout: the larger plaque would be shipped and must fit the donated rock. The conversation noted a nearby viewing platform and a small clearing by the water bank as the anticipated installation site.
Next steps identified in the meeting included confirming the final plaque size, finish and text, arranging for donation/transport of the boulder, and proceeding with ordering and shipment once those details are approved at a subsequent meeting.
