Fun for everyone

It's not every day we pull out the big box of pioneer toys, but last Friday was special - Family Fun  Day!
We had LOTS of visitors, and one of our volunteers showed how to play the historic games of "graces" or throwing hoops between players to catch on sticks.  Checkers, Jacob's Ladder, Limber Jack and other old favorites were also tested, and found to still be fun today.

Litter Clean Up Day


Trail Tenders did their semi-annual litter cleanup along Highway 86 this morning.  It's always amazing what gets left along the highway - today's big catch was a brand new mounted tire.  Thanks to the volunteers who help keep this stretch of highway clean - and a bigger thanks to all those responsible folks who throw their litter in a trash can or take it to the dump instead of throwing it out in our beautiful outdoors!
