Remember the Miners, a West Virginia campaign dedicated to honoring fallen coal miners and the sacrifices miners make for U.S. energy, is kicking off the Coal Club.
BECKLEY (AP) — Raleigh County officials plan to place
a monument on the courthouse lawn that will honor the 29 miners killed
in the 2010 Upper Big Branch mine explosion.
The Register-Herald reports that the County Commission on Tuesday approved spending about
$6,500 for the project. The money will reimburse the Beckley-Raleigh
Chamber of Commerce for the monument's costs.
County administrator
John Humphrey told the commission that the monument is completed but
doesn't yet have a base. He says it probably will be dedicated in the
spring.
Another memorial honoring the fallen miners is located in a
small park-like plaza in Whitesville. It was dedicated in July.
Volunteers raised money for that project.
