On November 25th, 2000 we held a ceremony to dedicate a new Stone Bridge to the late Arden Brooks, a great friend of the Greely Lions who recently passed away.
The Bridge, the second stone bridge in the Greely parkland was funded by the Township of Osgoode with its construction being managed by the Greely Lions.
The bridge was engineered by Lion Dave McManus and the principle builder was Lion Ric Olivieri.
We are proud of our involvement in the construction and especially proud of the the finished product.
