Marking the Points Along the Way

The Project has reached another milestone with the commissioning of 12 Wyman Memorial Plaques.  Produced by Franklin Bronze Plaques of Pennsylvania, each Wyman Memorial Plaque is inscribed with a unique "Dedicated by..." line chosen by the Plaque Sponsor.  We expect delivery from Franklin by the end of the year.

The efforts to get these and other Wyman Memorial Plaques and Wyman Waypoint Signs mounted at authorized and secure locations is ongoing.  Contact the Project for the details... WymanMemorialProject@gmail.com

If you would like to join the Project by sponsoring a Wyman Memorial Plaque at a location along Wyman's historic route, see the list of available locations here:  Current Sponsor List  Click on the "Friends of George" link above for information about becoming member of the Project.
