Children's Garden Fair a success

The fair was well-attended, with about 600+ visitors by the halfway point. There were a wide variety of booths, from making hats with newspaper to the life of bees to identifying bugs, and many more. Also in attendance was "Carl" the cardinal (see photos below), who I found out was really Emily Zakhary, daughter of our City Manager Yost Zakhary. A good time was had by all. Arboretum Director Janet Schaffer and assistant Megan Salinas did a good job organizing this event. And thanks to all of the volunteer groups that set up and staffed the booths.
