EAST SWEET SPRINGS
GRAND OPENING CELEBRATION
Over a hundred people gathered to celebrate the long awaited opening of East Sweet Springs. Most took the walk out to the new platform/blind at the water's edge. Most also enjoyed treats provided and a beverage for toasting the work done by so many over the past nine years to make this happen and to celebrate this beautiful place that can now be accessed by the public for the first time.
Here are a few photos (taken by Dave Clendenen) to get an idea of this special day.
