Jo Clancy, a long-time resident of Woodend and a passionate member of the local Landcare Group, has left a lasting legacy to the community with the gift of a new 24-metre long footbridge.
Family, friends, community members, Macedon Ranges Shire councillors and staff, the bridge’s designer and contractor attended the event. After some of Jo’s friends, colleagues and family members shared their memories, a plaque was unveiled to commemorate the bridge’s opening and Jo’s contribution.
