Bench Donations Pour In

Members of the Golden Generation Advisory Board (GGAB) in Green River sought donations for the purchase of several benches to install along Uinta Drive . and donations are exactly what the board received. Board President Ginny Edwards and Recording Secretary Pamela Spivack had initially written letters to the editor to the Rocket-Miner and Green River Star newspapers, seeking donations to purchase six benches to go along Uinta Drive to make walking more attractive for seniors.
As soon as the articles were printed in the newspapers, the money began pouring in for support of the bench project, says Ginny Edwards.
The GGAB exclaims that so many donations poured in that the amount has greatly exceeded the purchase of six benches. The board says that due to the support and generosity of the public, the City will have six additional benches to be installed.
The additional benches will be installed along the Greenbelt Pathway.
