Ceremony to celebrate mural held in Moorefield

The official ribbon cutting for the Moorefield mural was held Oct.16.

Dave Campbell of the Moorefield Mural Committee (MMC) thanked all those involved in bringing the project to fruition, including: the Township of Mapleton, the Moorefield Athletic Association, Drayton Moorefield Minor Ball, the Mapleton Fire Department, Moorefield Optimists and members of the mural committee.

A special thank-you was made in person to mural artist Allen Hilgendorf, who expressed gratitude that he could attend the ceremony. Hilgendorf has been battling serious personal health issues and was unable to see the mural erected earlier this year. The artist has experienced a remarkable improvement in his health and hopes to continue decorating small towns across the province.
