BIG NEWS! After almost five years of fits and starts, our Greenbelt Project is a "GO"! Clearwater Landscaping has submitted the winning bid to Parks and Rec; we have an estimate to move the D.A.R. monument and an estimate for our three interpretive signs. All together, the total cost is $73,000 (that's about 50% higher than where we started!).  Our three Rotary clubs have committed to start a new fundraising program to get it done! We'll sell some more bricks (if you haven't purchased your Rotary brick yet, now is the time!); you can buy "naming rights" to our three interpretive signs for $5,000 each; we'll apply for some grants and, most fun, we'll start  a GoFundMe campaign.  We already have enough to get the contractor started; we can hold off on the monument and the signs if necessary. We'll also have a table at the District celebration- you might consider taking a turn there!
