Hello all --
 
B'nai B'rith International put a time capsule into the cornerstone of their then new building in 1956. The building was torn down several years ago and the time capsule has been sitting in a back room of the interim Museum space ever since. They would like to open the time capsule at this year's Board of Governor's meeting on June 12th. The time capsule is a metal box (copper?), 33"x 24" x 6", and welded shut. I have found information on how to open the time capsule, but we have neither the equipment or the space to do so ourselves. We would like to hire someone to do this but are having a problem finding someone willing to do so. Please let me know if you have suggestions about what kind of person/agency might do this work.
 
Thank you.
 
Kathleen
