Sailboat Bridge Ornaments Available

The Delaware County Genealogical Society is again making it possible for area residents to add some Grove nostalgia to their Christmas decor. The group has re-ordered the "Old Sailboat Bridge" ornaments for its 2005 fund-raiser. The ornament is a genuine 24K gold-flashed brass and will be available for holiday gift-giving.
Linda McDonald from the society will be available at the Grove Public Library on Wednesdays from 9 a.m. to 12 noon for those wanting to buy. Linda also can be called at 786-9367.The ornaments are oval, three inches by 2.5 inches, with a 3-d effect. Cost per ornament is still $10 each.
The ornaments come in a red box bearing the history of the Old Sailboat Bridge. Construction of the new Sailboat Bridge began in 2000 and was completed in 2001. Sixteen piers of the original bridge remain as part of the new bridge which continues as a breathtaking gateway to Grove.
