For those with an interest in knowing, we had a fabulous turnout for the city-wide Arbor Day celebration and Interpretive Center dedication.
On a day that wavered between sunshine and warmth, overcast and somewhat cool - but always windy, more than 650 people showed up!!! The park was teeming with people and everything was planted well in time for lunch. We did run out of buttons and thought we would run out of food but were able to squeak by and everyone had a great deal of fun. The dedication for the Interpretive Center included special recognition of Carl Kroening for whom the Center is officially named. Recently we have also learned that the Interpretive Center is the recipient of the Heritage Preservation Commission's award for Community Education. This is a tremendous honor. Thank you to all who planned, participated, sponsored and contributed toward making this event a success. It is truly an event worth remembering. The North Mississippi Regional Park has become the newest jewel in the park system's riverfront development. Visit and visit often! ===== Candy Sartell Lind Bohanon, Ward 4 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
