Harry Kalas/Wipe-out Productions

On Wednesday June 23rd Curtis and Drew from Scott Graham's production company "Wipeout productions" of Philadelphia arrived in Windsor to shoot some documentary footage of our Harry Kalas Memorial Statue project. It was a long couple of days and I cant wait to see what they came up with. Not only filming work at the studio they were all over the area filming the beautiful Vermont scenery.

Another huge step.......

In November we started this project......today with the blessing and absolute approval of the Kalas family we will be shipping the finished 7.5' clay figure to Laran Bronze in Chester, Pa. for molding and casting. We have passed the halfway mark in fundraising goal and will continue to raise funds through creative efforts including limited edition "Harry" bronzes.
We will be presenting images of the final piece to the Phillies front office as soon as possible and will be sure to let you all know when that will be.
Its a great day to be a Philadelphia sports fan!
