For $400 we can sponsor a tree permanently in a Milwaukee park, for example.  Or $250 for a personalized brick at the Milwaukee Humane Society.  That's a little extravagant, I think (although it might be appropriate someday) but maybe there's something similar but less pricey we can do?  Like maybe there's something similar with library donations, and we could maybe put together a donation of $100 in honour of Reunision.  Or if even smaller than that, for $25 we can adopt an artifact from the historical society of the city in Art's name: https://milwaukeehistory.net/adopt-an-artifact/

I will pledge $25 towards any such eventuality.  I am not sure if there is something that could be done within the boundaries of the GTA?  Another idea would be to get someone to fly a kite in the GTA on that date - there is a store in the Veterans Park area https://www.giftofwings.com/ a kite with Talossan colors and the flight captured on video for all to see?  Or a flag being raised within the GTA similar to what is shown in the recent anthem interpretation ?

I join Sir Briga in pledging $25

That's $50 right there, and I'm not even in the government. Imagine what could happen with some official leadership and energy behind this! Let's get it going.

Lots of people up in here keen on spending Government money, lol; the Finance Minister has been made aware.

I must say, even though I already said I'm not in a position to contribute much, I don't feel comfortable about all this stuff being proposed as part of a "Reunision" celebration without Reviensadeirs being actively involved - especially with a deadline of 16 days from now. I would actually suggest that a lot of it is a celebration of Talossan nationhood per se, and therefore might be better for an Independence Day commemoration at the end of the year?

Anyway, lest we forget the reason for the season

I'm not sure anyone at all has proposed spending government money? So far two citizens have pledged $25 of their personal funds to a project of this nature.

But okay, I'll leave it alone and stop suggesting ideas and planning. I hope something does happen, though.

I agree with Baron Davinescu. I hope something does happen to commemorate the reunification of the Talossan family too. Even if it is just a proclamation from the outgoing Seneschal or the incoming one marking the event. My offer of personal funds stands as I think Reunision is worth celebrating.

My mistake, I assumed that by "some official leadership and energy behind this!" you meant the State chipping in for this venture. Well, I encourage private initiative to do whatever they want. And I double encourage "voluntary taxation" donations to the Internal Revenue from whoever for whatever.

I think a speech from myself and from the King on the day (as the two heads of state who did the deal) would be appropriate. I actually think that I might call for input on this from the citizenry of Fiova, featuring the largest concentration of Reviensadeirs.

In case it is helpful here is an example from @Dr. Txec Róibeard dal Nordselvă, Esq., O.SPM, SMM when he was a RUMP Seneschal back in 2013. A Reunision Day Proclamation on the one year anniversary declaring a period of national celebration.

I had quite forgotten about this proclamation! I also forgot that I was Seneschal on the one-year anniversary. Quite cool!

I should be able to attend a virtual get-together that evening if others are available.

So can someone get in touch with the King to see if he's up for making a Reunision Day Speech?

Did *you* reach out to the King? It wasn't me brimming with enthusiasm about this commemoration. I just volunteered to give a speech.

It was a good proclamation too.

I wonder if we can still get a proclamation of celebration out? This doesn't require the King.
