Imagine, none of this was here about 15 years ago. What a difference!
I added the soda machine as it’s really the only fundraiser we do now, it helps pay for flower beds and minor expenses. Thanks for grabbing a soda or water!

At the candlight walk on Saturday, we will have a clearance far below cost sale! Once gone that’s all we have! $5 each! Come to one of our tables at the Marc center.

We usually like positive posts but the amount of dog f***s on the trail is out of control! Why would a small amount of the population do this to a great thing in the city? It’s also against city ordinance.

If you build it they will come! New apartments on the trail.

The Black Squirrel Scurry triathlon again gave us a portion of their proceeds. We received a $500 check from them. This is a great event bringing many people to Merrill and experiencing our great outdoors! Consider volunteering next year it is a lot of fun watching!

We were able to attend the ground breaking for the new development on the vacant parcel adjacent to the trail. These units will provide apartments right near the Riverbend Trail. A local company VanHoffKo The River LLC is the developer. They are using local financing and a lot of local people to complete this development. Welcome!
