To the editors:

I would like to take a moment to recognize the simple bridge makeover that occurred recently to beautify our downtown area.

From what I have heard, I believe the Garden Club has been attempting to get the Village and/or State to take accountability for the cleanup that was needed.

It was no surprise to see two ladies with paint trays and rollers in hand tackling the job in two evenings of work. I believe it was Dee Holoday and Natalie Mitchell (forgive me if I am wrong.)

Thank you for taking the initiative and getting the job done. It is a huge improvement. That bridge takes a beating from the traffic and weather, and the women wanted a better look for our town. This falls in line with the rest of the work these women (and our Garden Club) do in this area which includes painting the guardrail in the past, seasonal decorations, and a neatly maintained memory garden at the northwest end.

Thank you for taking pride in our village.
