Week 2 in Region 13

Community Garden Visit in Denison

Grace and I (Julia) started off our Tuesday by putting up signage at the community garden in Denison. The signs displayed information about the community garden, food safety in donation gardens, steps to wash your hands, and what to do with excess produce.

Tour of Denison

On Wednesday, we were able to get out of the office to tour Denison! Our first stop was the county fairgrounds, where we saw Earl Marshall the bull. Afterward, we visited Crawford County Memorial Hospital to discuss a future project and viewed their outdoor patio that has a stunning view of Denison. Our tour concluded at Yellowstone Park, where people can camp, hike, and swim in a lake.

Art in the Park

We ended our week at Art in the Park in Harlan. While we were there, we worked at the Wellness Alliance’s booth. Some members of the Wellness Alliance, Grace, and I handed out watermelon on a stick and talked about the new Imagination Playground. The kids, parents, and even grandparents loved the watermelon on a stick!
