We are having our big Ecotourism meeting at Brent City Hall 7:00 Thursday night, with Nisa Miranda as speaker and mastermind of our plan. :)
The same meeting will also be held on the 19th at Woodstock City Hall at 7:00 pm
April 21st is our very first Renew Our Rivers Cleanup at the Refuge, 8:00 am, organized by Friends of the Cahaba River National Wildlife Refuge, a newly formed group whose mission is to support the Cahaba Refuge and build amenities there.
May 19th is the Cahaba River Ramble- a 5K and 10K trail race and fun day at the Refuge, put on by Cahaba River Society in honor of the late Shane Hulsey, our education director to benefit the CLEAN program, our educational program that gets kids out on the river.
May 26th is the Lily Festival- The West Blocton Improvement Committee's 19th year running, I believe! A morning of speakers and a great homemade lunch, then it's off to the Refuge to see the lilies!
June 29th is the opening of the Smithsonian exhibit, Between Fences, in West Blocton. This is being held in conjunction with the Fish Fry on Friday (attended by over 1,000 people!) and the Old Timers Ballgame with Lima bean lunch on Saturday.
