Earth Day Festival draws enthusiastic crowd
Insect Parade participants
Guyton Planning and Zoning board member Mike Gerwig dressed up as a giant praying mantis for the Insect Parade. The parade was part of the festivities for the second-annual Earth Day Celebration at the Spring Sale on the Trail. The costumes for the parade had to have an earth-friendly theme and be constructed of earth-friendly or recycled materials. Pictured with Gerwig from left, are Rita Elliott, Nubia Brady (bee), and Maggie Kelly (daisy) Elliott and Kelly were the co-organizers of the Earth Day Festival.
