TDC considering memorial for oystermen

The Franklin County Tourist Development Council has set up a planning committee to study a plan to create a memorial for local oystermen who have died on the water.
Local artist Daphne Evanoff has offered to create a 9 foot metal oyster statue as well as plaques with the names of those oystermen who have lost their lives on the water.
The sculpture would be placed at the Visitors center in Eastpoint.

The TDC voted on April 8th to support the idea and to create a committee to study the plan further.
