Nature Center Spring Festival
This past Saturday, on March 11, the Nature Center hosted its Spring Festival and the re-opening of the newly rennovated facility. There were clowns, and owls, and local honey for sale, plus some great pulled-pork sandwiches, baked beans and coleslaw provided by Skinny’s Bar-B-Que. It proved to be a huge success with over 500 people of all ages in attendance. There was also a new flagpole dedication and a ribbon cutting ceremony. It took a lot of volunteers... but it was a lot of fun. Read more starting on page 24
