Court St Sentry
Tioga County, New York - Historical Quotables and Notables
The Sentry Park was established to enhance the existing posts that guard the Court St. Bridge. These posts have remained unused for the past two decades. Owego Rotary Club decided to infuse the park with historical significance and provide a soapbox style platform for future
aspiring authors, artists, and notable individuals to announce their endeavors.
To achieve this, we conducted research on individuals who have made substantial contributions to society beyond our county
prior to the year 2000.
The Owego Rotary Club extends its gratitude to the following individuals and organizations for their contributions to the Sentry Park project:
