         The life and times of Mark and Paula Persons

Saturday, October 25, 2014: 
Mark joined volunteers from the Brainerd Sertoma Club to help install lights for the upcoming Winter Wonderland fund raising display.

 
The work was being done at the Northland Arboretum at Brainerd.  Of course, the volunteers needed some donuts and coffee to keep them going.
 
Lots of light strings to be sorted out and strung up.  Many thousands of lights actually.
 
Talk about multi-tasking.  This volunteer was holding things up and had tape ready to keep it there.
 
More donuts and more strings of lights to be untangled, then put up before the day was over.
 
A candy cane entrance was erected too. 
The 2014 Winter Wonderland will be open to the public Wednesday through Saturday nights starting Thursday, November 27th through Wednesday, December 31st from 5:30 to 8 PM. 
Stay tuned to this blog to see what it looks like with snow and in the dark.

Quote of the day:  Volunteering for community civic activities is a good pursuit.   Mark < Back to previous story Ahead to next story >
