Patience and Fortitude turn 100

Patience and Fortitude, the lions outside The New York Public Library, are about to have their 100th birthdays and the City of New York is looking for creative ways to celebrate. (http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/04/21/in-honor-of-a-century-of-patience-and-fortitude/?hp)

What would you suggest to help New Yorkers honor these symbols?

For that matter, does your organization have an important, significant, memorable milestone on the horizon? Are you going to celebrate it? Who will be involved? How will you make it an occasion? These are nice opportunities to share memories and reminiscences and extend the corporate history - real and folkloric - throughout the organization.

(I know that I posted something about this earlier, but these kinds of occasions are such low-hanging fruit in terms of having fun in the workplace that I have never understood why they aren't "plucked" more regularly.)
