Stop by their table at the “Burning of the Socks” event to purchase your quilt raffle and some goodies to take with you. The members of Jurassic Park will be there selling new 2021 Stickers as well as raffle tickets for an Axe Board with axes. This is a fundraiser for the park and all proceeds will help with keeping it up. Until next week, stay safe!
