How tough is it to cross the border these day? Barry Ogden, who chairs the city's recreaton committee, found out last weekend when the U-N-B Saint John Seawolves travelled to Bangor to face the Hussan College Eagles. Ogden says since he took a team down 30 years ago, the border has really changed and he thinks the Mexican-U.S. border is having an impact on our border.
Ogden has also been the driving force behind construction of the replica of the Marco Polo tall ship which will be taken, with a police escort, from the lower west side over the Harbour Bridge to the Station next month. It will be used to help the Saint John Theatre Company stage the Marco Polo musical at Harbour Station.
