In honor of the 100th year for Rotary International, the Salem Rotary Club decided to do something big. They built the Centennial Pavilion in Riverfront Park. O'Neill Pine Company was the exclusive supplier of all the certified timbers (a little over 15,000 board feet) used in the project. Labor was provided by the Timber Framers Guild, who also covered the project on their web site. The Salem Statesman Journal wrote a story about Salem's newest work of art as well.

Construction went pretty smoothly.
