Hi,

 

The 'World's Most-Interesting Man' says...........

 

You are cordially invited to the Danvers-Wenham SwampWalk Grand Opening,

Saturday, May 18 @ 10AM.

 

 

We will convene on the West-Wolniewicz Observation Platform & the adjacent walkways.

 

 

There will be a ribbon-cutting & a few short speeches.

Additionally, 'work-crew' chow from Supreme's will be served & guided environmental tours will be conducted by Wetland Scientists.

In short, it will be festive & fun for the whole family.

 

Of special note, Bob Osgood, currently residing at the Tapley School, will be there to check-out 'Osgood Island'.

Bob is mobility impaired but is looking forward to being dropped off at the Rte 97 parking lot & then being van-transported down the Rail Trail & then personally-transported onto the Observation Platform.

 

 

If you are mobility impaired or simply prefer not to walk down the Rail Trail to get to the Grand Opening, please join Bob.

The van will make as many trips as there are folks reserving transportation.

Please call Susan Fletcher at Danvers Town Hall to make your van-transportation reservation @ 978-777-0001, ext. 3027.

Susan will also answer any other inquiries you may have.

 

The Grand Opening will be celebrated rain or shine.

 

 

 

 

Greg Hochmuth & John Dick, Wetland Scientists, begin the environmental & engineering plans for the elevated walkway for presentation to the Danvers & Wenham Conservation Commissions & Boards of Selectmen:

 

Dan Bennett & Frank Lentine begin on the first day by cutting brush on the rail tracks:

 

How do you transport lumber down a 'Rail Trail' before the rails are removed?:
