So You Want a Plaque!

It is very simple.

All you need to do it provide your story/experience/joke/photographs etc. and a location for placement. That's all. You are done.

  • The story should be about 75 words or less
  • Should have a title
  • And how you want to be identified, if at all (it is more interesting to be identified even if it's only a first name or initials
All "plaques" will be placed on Common Ground on Google Maps.

Information can be posted on this blog or emailed to Kendal11101@hotmail.com with Common Ground in the Subject box.
