DUBOIS – Don’t miss your opportunity to own a piece of DuBois history.
The Downtown DuBois Revitalization Group is set to install the first round of engraved bricks at the site which used to be home to the Pershing Hotel. Each brick paver is 4″ x 8″ and will be engraved with up to two lines (14 characters per line). The cost for each brick is $75.00.
Anyone may purchase bricks to engrave with their own names or the names of the members of their immediate families. You may also want to purchase bricks in the names of your children and grandchildren, laying the groundwork for younger generations of your family to become part of the history of Downtown DuBois. Even further, you may choose to bricks as memorials, inscribing them in memory of loved ones whose lives were touched in some way by DuBois.
When completed, it will serve as a permanent piece of sacred, historic Downtown DuBois and will be visible to thousands of visitors each year. In addition, you’ll also receive a beautiful certificate of recognition, suitable for framing, as a keepsake.
The Downtown DuBois Group will be hosting a “Brick Dedication Ceremony” to celebrate the installation of the bricks on June 2 at 5:30 p.m.
If you would like to be part of this event, your brick(s) must be ordered by April 29.
