Volunteer Effort Brightens up the Fenelon Bridge

Many spots in town - including the bridge over the falls - got a little brighter this past week after a huge collective effort from local volunteers worked to install and plant beautiful flower boxes and baskets around town. Spearheaded by Julia Taylor and Marylee Boston on behalf of the Fenelon Falls and District Chamber of Commerce, the mission to beautify our community spaces relies on the volunteer efforts of a huge group of people.

COVID-19 = Feeding our Community

Submitted by WG Jackett & Sons Construction, Youngs Construction, and Rockwood Forest Nurseries

- Youngs Construction (http://youngsconstruction.ca/ )

- Rockwood Forest Nurseries (http://www.rockwoodforest.com/
