Stalking the Wild Egg

Children of all ages are invited to join the Friends of Candler Park on Saturday, March 22 to search for hidden eggs
inside our beautiful park. The fun begins at 10 AM. Along with the egg hunt, we’ll have face painting, photo ops with a
giant bunny and yummy goodies from The Mercantile.

On February 21st the Friends of Candler Park met for our regular meeting and discussed the following:
• The Candler Park usage survey showed that we use our park for 1. walking, 2. pet walking and a tie for 3. jogging and relaxing
• Work day Saturday May 3rd. Invasive species removal around the basketball court.
• Voted to support the Green Committee during the Fall Fest.
• FCP will have advertising space at the Operation Boot Camp 420 fest booth to ensure we have booth coverage for the weekend.
• Talked about how the money from the ING cheering zone could support the park-maybe with a walking trail to support the usage survey results
• We discussed the process of getting a dog park in Candler Park and voted to begin work on it. First step being a survey.

Our next meeting is Thursday March 13th, 7PM at Java Vino (579 North Highland...please don't forget to buy
something delicious to enjoy during the meeting as we use the space in trade!)
