Today, workers from North American Display in Pittsburgh, PA began dismantling the Packard Music Hall Marquee that was installed in 1984. A new LED Display with additional back-lit panels will replace it over the next week. This project is being financed by the very generous donations from multiple parties including 2 anonymous donors, JAC Management Group, The W.D. Packard Band, The W.D. Packard Foundation, Trumbull Town Hall and Community Skilled Health Care Centre. Total project cost is close to $70,000 with approximately $55,000 collected so far. Additional donations are still being accepted through the W.D. Packard Foundation.
