at the front entrance rotunda of the new Bridgton Hospital
are six distinctive 'pods' of granite bricks. In 2001, the
'Walkway of Honor' started as a way for donors to make a gift
to the capital campaign that built the new Bridgton Hospital.
A donor gift of $1,000 or more would then be recognized through
a beautifully hand engraved granite brick installed in the
Walkway. More than 300 granite bricks were engraved and installed,
truly a lifetime recognition gift! When the Walkway was created
we left more than 100 bricks available for future purchases
and the program continues to be popular today. Celebrating
a marriage, birth, anniversary, as a memorial, special honor
or dedication, the reasons to purchase a gift are countless
- and many are quite creative. The Walkway is a favorite of
visitors who are often seen slowly walking the paths to read
donor sentiments.
