Fair Haven’s park is looking lovely with the addition of some new visitors. The creative talents of the citizens are really on display with this project to decorate the park for the fall season. Local artists, businesses, and organizations are taking part in this project designed to celebrate autumn, leaf peeping season, and to put a smile on people’s faces. You will find one of the stick figures looks a lot like town manager Joe Gunter. Ms. Nomo Payne is a nurse, and is dedicated to all those on the front lines of this virus, serving the health care needs of our communities. You will find Paige Turner, a mystery writer, from the Fair Haven Free Library and Eta Lott from the Wooden Soldier. They are hoping to display around 40 figures in the park.
The committee is asking everyone who has a stick figure to please return them as soon as possible so they can be put on display. Folks from near and far are encouraged to stop by the park and take a walk around the fence to see some of these cleverly dressed figures.
The stick figures will be in the park until Nov. 1., when the committee will begin its next project for the winter holiday season. More information will be announced in the coming weeks about that.
In the meantime, if you want to dress and name a stick figure for the park, they are going quickly, and they need to be returned to Finders Keepers prior to Oct. 10. For more information on how you might participate in this project, please stop by and see Cindy at Finders Keepers in Fair Haven or call Lorraine Brown at 802-265-3843.
