Some will be provided, but helpful tools to bring to attach the memorial plaques are:
= Screwdriver
= Adjustable pliers
= 3/8th and 7/16th or adjustable wrench

**No Power Tools** 
When used to tightened the hardware too far, they cause the plaques to crack over time.

And, remember we need volunteers to take them down on May 31!
