New Squirrel Trail Program sparks “Curiosity” Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Seguin) – The city of Seguin continues to welcome squirrels out of their nest one by one. The latest in a series of larger-thanlife, fiber-glass squirrels has yet again made its debut, this time outside the Seguin Public Library. Since February, the city has begun to unveil the concrete squirrel sculptures as part of the Seguin Squirrel Trail Program. Each sponsored squirrel is painted by a local artist and then permanently mounted somewhere throughout the community. Commissioning the painting of the city’s third squirrel is local couple Chris and Jim Dyess. Chris says the couple didn’t hesitate to sponsor a squirrel. She says the couple was just excited that the city was launching the unique program – a program like others across the country. “We’ve seen public art in small

towns around the United States and it’s really cool. It really ties a town together, so we were thrilled when Seguin did the squirrel thing. We’ve seen that when we were in Houston. It was a lot of fun for people to go around and see the different cows. It’s just a fun thing for people to be able to do in the community and to promote art that people can touch,” said Chris. Chris’ husband Jim says they also didn’t hesitate in picking a location to plant their squirrel. “We picked the library because we do some of our programs here with the library and we really think that Seguin has got one of the best libraries maybe in the state especially for a town of its size. So it was so impressive when Seguin decided that it was important enough for the community to have a quality first class library,” said Jim. Curiosity, pg. 3
