Please remember to stop by Thursday afternoon between 1:00 and 5:00 to wish our naturalist John Schaust well in Cleveland, Ohio, John has been with Potato Creek Park for the past 7'/j years and has done a great job in helping to write the history and make a movie of the park. This makes us the first park in the state to have any history, so he is certainly to be praised and thanked for that. So let him know you appreciate all the work he has done at Potato Creek State Park. Last year John was recognized as the Naturalist of the Year. If you haven't seen the Nature Center, you are really missing a treat. Our sympathy this week goes to the Emery (Brick) Singleton’s family on his passing on Friday at Miller's Merry Manor in Walkerton. His wife, Bemadino is a resident in Miller's also. Our sympathy also goes to Barney Wentz who lost his brother, Ray, in Elkhart, this week. Many will remember Bernice and Hattie Tumbleson who lived on State Road 4 across from the state park entrance. Hattie, 80 years old. died Saturday in Miller's Merry Manor, in Plymouth. Just want to put in a good word for our Treasure Chest here in North Liberty and it is exactly that.
