Commemoration

Commemoration

There are many interesting opportunities for permanent evidence of goodwill provided in the funding campaign of the Restoration of Victoria Hall.

Your generosity will be suitably acknowl- edged on a handsome plaque displayed in perpetuity in the restored Hall. Certain major gifts may have separate plaques. Kindly make your selection from the Commemoration List inside.

ALL donations of $100 or more will be recorded with your name (or a name you request) in a "Friends of Victoria Hall' book which will be permanently displayed in a prominent place.

Windows - $1,000 each

There are 96 windows on the North, East and West aspects of Victoria Hall.

Each of these windows may be "bought" for a $1 000 gift, and the name of the sub- scriber (or a name requested) will be in- scribed on a Benefactors' Plaque. The name will also appear in the "Friends of Victoria Hall" Book.

Famous Names Rooms

The area serviced by Victoria Hall has produced many famous people, and their names have become part of local history. To help perpetuate these names of famous people who were born, educated, lived or worked here, rooms in the restored Hall will bear their names and some memento of them.
