Commission narrows Veterans Day plans; Phil Plummer and Judge Brandon McClain among potential speakers
Summary
The commission discussed Veterans Day logistics, including guest speakers (Rep. Phil Plummer and Judge Brandon McClain), the need for a pastor and an emcee, and use of JROTC and Wayne/Wright State partners for ceremonies.
Commission members spent the bulk of new business planning the Nov. Veterans Day event, reviewing roles and outstanding logistics. Chair said two individuals have expressed interest in serving as guest speaker: Representative Phil Plummer and Judge Brandon McClain, and told members he will follow up this week to confirm whether either is a fit for the program.
Members also discussed securing a pastor for invocation and a person to serve as emcee; the Chair volunteered to serve as emcee if no one else steps forward. Commissioners were asked to review past event timelines posted on the city website to guide planning and to contact school or unit commanders about JROTC participation.
