Our community just dedicated a Veteran's Freedom Park<http://www.townofcary.org/Departments/fdts/facilities/Current_Projects/veteransfreedompark.htm> over Memorial Day weekend. In addition to flowers, notes and other small items, someone left a purple heart and there is folded American flag and couple of cans of beer which we have been advised maybe token from Vietnam War veterans. This may or may not be an issue but we need to decide a clear direction on what to do with what people leave at the park. The site is not staffed and will require additional staff time to monitor.
Questions we are pondering include:
* Should we create a historical collection of some of the items left? And if so what should we keep?
* What should be left and or removed?
* How long do we leave things at the site?
Do any of you have a similar situation and if so how have you handled it?
Any feedback will be much appreciated.
