Dear Friends,

New Date for Cocoanut Grove Memorial Dedication September,2025

Despite our best efforts, the Cocoanut Grove Memorial will not be ready to be installed and dedicated till next September, 2025.

We regret the delay. however, we want the Memorial and Statler Park to represent the very best in honoring all related to the Cocoanut Grove Fire. We appreciate your patience and support, and we want you to know that our Design Team is working diligently with the Cit/s Arts Commission and Parks Department to create this worthy memorial. We will post updates on the Memorial on our website, at cocoanutgrove.or& or you can email me at m iha nlonlr@comcasi.net.

This year's anniversary of the fire, November 28, is also Thanksgiving Day, and we plan an annual vigil at the site of the Cocoanut Grove nightclub, at Piedmont Street, which is behind the Revere Hotel on Saturday, November 30, at 2:00 PM. We would welcome you to join us.

On behalf of the Cocoanut Grove Memorial Committee, thank you.

Sincerely yours,

Mike Hanlon
