Even more hideous from this angle.

It looks like a cross between Han Solo when he was frozen in carbonite and the Walking Dead.

That statue looks like somebody. I say find that person and make them a deal they can't turn down.

Talk about pathetic....can someone cut the bolts or however it is attached, maybe some of those thugs that steal wire from houses under construction, Home Depot etc. could make it disappear - it probably has scrap value. Note to board be sure it is insured!! Note #2 to board please go out for cocktails after your meetings instead of before....

You make too much sense my friend. I'm not even sure you have to cut off the entire head. Of course, what do I know? I'm not a gifted artist like the dude who built the thing.

Just cut off the head and replace it. That should not be a big bill.

Thanks for the info on the past history RT. I have to agree. Why accept it when it doesn't even look like her. Maybe the sun was so bright in the park that day that the village officials were blinded when the statue was put up! Now the Mayor wants to fix it with a grant but he doesn't want the taxpayers to pay for it. News flash Mr. Mayor where do you think the money for government grants come from. It comes from the TAXPAYERS!!!! Figtree I don't know if the board even knows the Ten Commandments but their should be a new commandment just for this board "thou shall not blame someone else for your mistakes"!

it became clear that the village officials accepted this statue and at no time did they question it. Apparently they never checked on what it looked like as it was being made. The July 15th article shows that they had time to check before it was delivered. What is truly sad is that they accepted it with such fanfare and now are attacking the sculptor. If they did not like the statue why did they accept it? I agree with the people that want it fixed because it does not look anything like Lucy but the fact that it is in the park is on the village officials. I know that you should not speak ill of the dead but this is all on Jack Keeney, Scott Schrecengost, Norm Mattison, **** Kogut and Robin Young for accepting it in the first place. Now Mayor Schrecengost makes the statement that the sculptor should "stand behind his work enough to step up and fix it for free". Maybe the village officials who accepted it in the first place should admit their mistake and pay to have it fixed t

When I first read carlaw"s comment I agreed until I looked at previous articles about this. On 8/8/09 there was an Post Journal article called "Start Of Something Big". In the article Jetta Wilson said that she was "extremely pleased" and "it's just perfect" in talking about the statue. You should know that Mrs. Wilson was the Deputy Clerk of Celoron then and I believe she still is. In another article that same day titled "Move To Celoron Brings Festival Full Circle" the late Mayor Jack Keeney said "It's absolutely special. It's so great to have a statue of Lucy here". He also said that having the statue will "certainly bring a lot of recognition" to the village. In a 7/15/09 article titled Celoron Family Donates Lucy Statue" Mayor Keeney said "I don't have the words to thank you enough for the village". Trustee Norm Mattison said of the statue "It's a wonderful gift". After reading these article

more idle worship of a communist, is it any wonder new York city elected a communist, seems they have snuck in everywhere around New York including Celoron. Why not put up replica of Ten Commandments, they are the ten most recognized laws of free society.

Why would you want the same sculptor to have anything to do with this project. He didn't even come close. If he could fix it, he would have long ago since it is an embarrassment in it's present state.
