Remember the sing along that was cancelled? Well it's still going to happen, virtually! We hope you will hop on your computer or phone in. We will do some oldies and goodies and take requests via Facebook. Hopefully we can try this again in a few weeks; or at least until we can meet up again in person around the campfire!
Congratulations Joanie, Corey, Bridget & Mr. Bridget on a successful first virtual sing-along!
There was a beautiful combination of participants: new, old, and returning. Songs were sweet & nostalgic, bouncy & funny ( with motions! ) There were moments of story-sharing and camaraderie.
Sure there were some technical glitches, but the main thing was that you brought people together !
It was a lot of fun & the consensus was to do it again next month.

Richfield, OH 44286
The Story of
Ohio’s Hidden Treasure (TM) Richfield Heritage Preserve
Back by popular demand. The story of this 336-acre park starts with the Indian Wars of the early 1800’s. It moves on to Kirby’s whimsical inventions, Neals’ vast orchards, and the magical forests beloved by generations of Girl Scouts at Camps Julia Crowell and Hilaka. The most recent chapter of the story is its transition into a public park and its innovative melding of old & new. Presented by Lynn Richardson, historian of Friends of Crowell Hilaka.
