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.
