Land in Donian Park Approved!
The Gygax Memorial Fund has reached a huge milestone. We have been granted land for the memorial site at Donian Park, which "encompasses a wetland and the 100 year recurrence interval floodplain along the White River in downtown Lake Geneva."
Here's a section of the City of Lake Geneva Board of Park Commissioners meeting minutes from Janurary 5th, 2011:
Gygax Memorial-
Library Park was added to the application so that it reads both Donian Park and Library Park as a potential place for a monument. The design would include a castle turret with a bust on top and possibly have a dragon wrapped around the turret. A motion was made by the Mayor to approve the site in Donian Park, south of the walkway, on the southeast corner of Mill Creek. The footprint is not to exceed 10 feet by 10 feet. This was seconded by Phillips. Added to the motion was that Gygax should bring a detailed map to bring to the Council as well as a detailed statue design to come back to the Park Board for approval. Motion passed unanimously.
