What: Harold G. Woods Bridge dedication ceremony
When: Monday, October 20, 2014 - 11:00am
Where: James White Parkway at Sevier Ave. and McClung in South Knoxville
The public is invited to a dedication ceremony in honor of Harold G. Woods on Monday, Oct. 20th at 11AM at the James White Parkway bridge over Sevier Ave. in South Knoxville. The bridge will be officially designated as the Harold G. Woods Memorial Bridge.
State Rep. Joe Armstrong, sponsor of the memorial bill, will preside. He will be joined by Sylvia Woods, Rep. Gloria Johnson, Sen. Becky Duncan Massey, Mayor Madeline Rogero, friends and family of Harold G. Woods, and other local and state leaders.
The ceremony will take place at the JWP span over Sevier Ave. near McClung Ave. Look for traffic cones blocking a northbound lane and officers directing traffic.
Sylvia Woods says she "would like a lot of people to show up to honor Harold, but more importantly to show our grandchildren an ordinary man can do good works and be remembered."
