To check the original blog about Leon Dinosaur CLICK HERE.
When I shared the story behind this project which was the idea of Headmaster Bruce Abbott then given to me to make happen I was so pleased by the response to that blog posting.
Today I am going to visit the dinosaur at Warren Adventure Playground and say Hello to an old friend. The Peartree Bridge Dinosaur has a small plaque saying it was built by Bill Billings, I want to make as part of IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF SAMMY LEON a campaign for a similar acknowledgement for our dinosaur.
If you were part of the team building this icon of heritage and would care to share any memories please either drop me an e-mail at dashford566@gmail.com or friend me and message me on facebook. I want to put this idea to the council on Monday next week 29th November.
On another matter: Does anyone know how to
set up and manage an on-line petition ? Again a part of IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF
SAMMY LEON I want to campaign for Leon Bridge to be lifted out of obscurity and
proudly honoured as a part of our heritage. If you can help please either
