U.H. Gives Back to Canton & Ogdensburg Communities

Members of the Organizational Leadership Team and Mosaic Leadership Team each spent a portion of last week giving back to the communities in which they live and work.

On Wednesday, volunteers from the leadership team scraped down and repainted an old wooden fence around the Silas Wright Cemetery in Canton.

While it has been many years since a burial has taken place in the cemetery, many significant historical figures from Canton's past, including Silas Wright, are buried there.

On Friday volunteers from Mosaic, including a resident from Day Hab in Ogdensburg, hit the playground, but rather than swinging and sliding they were putting a fresh coat of stain on the Kid's Kingdom playground.

Kid's Kingdom, which has provided entertainment to generations of children from Ogdensburg and the surrounding communities, is one of the last remaining wooden playgrounds in the area.
