Holiday Bird Seed Bells Hanging, Nov. 21, 2004

See below for pictures from the event!


Boy with ladderA big thanks to everyone who came to help us hang the bird seed bells and plant spring-blooming flower bulbs on Sunday. A good time was had by all. Special thanks goes to Sue and the kids from her church who braved the cold to hang many of the bells. They were a big help.

Thanks to everyone who sponsored one or more bells, we were able to hang over 65 bells on several of the trees along with over 20 additional bows, so if you're in the area between now and the first of the year, stop by and see them. And be sure to visit in the spring, when the many bulbs planted will be in bloom. The bells will remain on the trees after the first of the year, but the bows will be removed.

We'll be posting the names of those who were honored and those who were at the event soon, so please check back.
