Squadron battle ribbons


Hi All

Palm Beach formed a 100 Anniversary committee a month ago to plan activities for the year and spoken briefly on the design of our battle ribbon.

We will order our ribbon, we ordered the 100th Banner and used it this past week end for our Holiday Boat parade, we know how to do it and we will order the ribbon when it is time, we are meeting again next Tuesday.

You might want to check with the squadrons to see what their plans are before you issue a color ribbon which might not be the color they had in mind.

Jack,

Will do. 

Spoke with Brian last night. We have a plan which I sent to you in a previous email. His initial comment is that no one in D8 has ordered a ribbon. I will be talking with him later today to verify that is the case as he was going from memory.

Our plan is based on that basic premise - thus we order all ribbons for all D8 Squadrons via email. Colors are red, white and blue. $20 each. You give the order and I will place the order. Brian will send a invoice to Gillettee for the lot(15 banners). Shipping to be determined.

What say you?

Bob

Bob:

As the 100th Anniversary Ad hoc committee chair, will you coordinate the D8 Squadrons ordering of their Squadron battle ribbons to be attached to the
100th Anniversary Ensign Flag Staff USPS will be issuing to each District Commander at the Annual Meeting.   Each Squadron’s battle ribbon will have their Squadron Name (leave off the Sail and Power Squadron initials) on the battle ribbons and the founding date.   We also will need to order a District 8 Battle Ribbon with its founding date.  Brian Waters of Seaborn Canvas will produce the battle ribbons for the $20 fee.

The cost of a standard battle ribbon is $20, which includes the district number a squadron name and founding date. You may choose from four colors: red, white, blue, and gold. Contact BrianWaters at Seaborn Canvas to place an order.  Please allow three weeks for delivery.
