The St. Marys Kinsmen Club returned the two refurbished bleachers to the DCVI sports field last Tuesday night.
With help from the Juggernauts, they had the steel structure scrapped and repainted, and had all the wood planks were replaced and painted (donated by St. Marys Home Hardware).
Nate Hibbert spearheaded the project and he and fellow Kinsmen Ryan Hammond used a flat-bed trailer and small crane to put the bleachers back in place at DCVI last Tuesday evening.
The Kinsmen Club will refurbish the Meadowridge field bleachers in the spring of 2011, Hibbert says.
