The First Friday of the Season, May 6th, was a success thanks to the many vendors, volunteers and visitors that participated. A variety of crafts, plants and local products were for sale, kids and adults made Mother’s Day cards and the Scout Cabin was lively despite the rain outside. Because of the generosity of all, First Friday was able to cover costs and make a donation to Hands on Art in support of our community. Thank you to the volunteers who set up, kept things running smoothly and cleaned up afterwards, especially Don Webb who put up the Maypole just in case the sun decided to join in the fun.
