NEWS RELEASE—OWEN ROSE GARDEN GAZEBO DEDICATION <br /> Page 2 <br /> May 20, 2003 <br /> "We are hoping that the gazebo will encourage visitors to linger in the shade of the garden and <br /> gather for family events in this beautiful rose garden by the river." <br /> Since the group adopted Owen Rose Garden as a community service project in 1999, <br /> members have donated more than 2,500 hours of planning, coordination and physical labor to <br /> the beautification of the public garden next to the Willamette River. In addition to constructing <br /> the new gazebo, they, in conjunction with City Parks and Open Space staff, have decorated the <br /> garden with trellises and constructed rose bed borders, a paver pathway and a large pergola to <br /> adorn the walkway with climbing roses. <br /> To purchase a personalized brick, slate tiles or planter in the garden or for more <br /> information about the dedication or project, call 682-4907. <br /> # ## <br />
