Inscription.
Saving the Safety Follows Wisdom Marker. . This "Safety Award Monument" was relocated to Avery Park on June 1, 2018. It was done so through the efforts of Boy Scout Haberle F. Conlon of Troop 22 as his Eagle Scout project. Several local businesses donated their time and heavy equipment to make this dream possible. For 84 years this monument stood as sentinel to the safety of workers at the Alpha Portland Cement plant here in Jamesville. It's relocation here will continue to serve as testament to those who labored safely in the once thriving local cement industry.
