‘Maroosis on Main Street’ is the title of a new plaque at the parkette at the intersection of Main West, Algonquin Avenue and Cassells Street.

It’s officially dedicated to the late George Maroosis for his many years of service to the community as a city councillor.

Mayor Peter Chirico, members of the Maroosis family, and others attended the dedication last Friday. The parkette is near the art business Maroosis operated.
