Centennial Park refurbished, rededicated
Posted: February 25, 2010
Thanks to donors, Centennial Park, created to honor the first 100 years of osteopathic medicine at its birthplace, now exceeds its original beauty. The Centennial Park Campaign raised $161,000, including $72,500 from the estate of Dr. John and Marie Hayes, and $10,000 from the Allen G. Silverton, D.O., family; more than $78,000 was raised by donors who purchased bricks, tiles, and capstones in the park. A rededication ceremony, led by ATSU President Jack Magruder, pictured, was held during Founder’s Day in October.
