This has to be one of my favourite plaques. Not only is it attached to a Rocket Slide – in itself, awesome – but the most awesomest thing about the plaque is that it mentions everybody by name involved in financing, building, and erecting the Rocket Slide but at no point actually names the person that it is erected in memory of.
