Boonville, NY, August 23, 2005 - Please join Boonville residents and other covered bridge enthusiasts in the State of New York for the dedication of our newest covered bridge. The town of Boonville will be hosting a gala celebration of the Erwin Park Covered Bridge on Saturday, September 24, 2005 at 1:00 pm. An exciting day is being planned and it is an event you won't want to miss.
A representative of the US postal service will be in attendance to cancel a first day issue cover envelope that will depict the covered bridge. There will also be covered bridge medallions given away to the first 500 guests. Both designs are the work of Boonville's own talented artist, John Mahaffey.
