Important News From the Courtyard of Honor, Board of Directors.

**Change of Leadership**

We are delighted to inform you that the board of directors has voted to promote Frank Jones to the position of President of the Courtyard of Honor. Frank held the position of Sr Vice President of the Courtyard of Honor since its inception over 2 years ago.

Frank will be responsible for the day-to-day operations of the non-profit. Assisting Frank, will be Tim Roche as Vice President and Doug Jones as Secretary. We are currently interviewing for the Treasurer role.

The Courtyard of Honor is now an all-volunteer, 100% non-profit organization. Our mission remains steadfast, to building two memorials in downtown Hershey; the Veterans Memorial and the First Responders/911 Memorial to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

We believe that this change will bring new opportunities for growth and fresh perspectives to our board and as we embark on this new chapter, we look forward to your continued support and collaboration. Together, we can make a lasting difference in our community.
