The Urbanna Beautification Inc. (UBI) and Town of Urbanna presented a grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony to a full house Saturday, July 1, for the new Bristow Community Pavilion in Taber Park in Urbanna.
The pavilion was constructed in honor of the late Charles and Betty (Betsy) Page Bristow, who during their lives were extremely dedicated to the betterment of the Town of Urbanna and Middlesex County.
At the grand opening, UBI representatives Judy Mansfield, Ann Miller and Nancy Greenwood all took time to thank all the donors who helped them raise nearly $100,000 to build the new pavilion. They also thanked Town Administrator Garth Wheeler and the Urbanna Town Council for encouraging and providing the land for the pavilion. They thanked contractor Mike Longest for his dedication to the project and working so well with the group.
Mansfield eluded to the fact that this may be UBI’s “swan song” as volunteers are aging out and younger members are hard to find.
