Earth Day in Spring Park

Tomorrow is Earth Day, and there can't be any more beautiful places to celebrate than Spring Park in Green Cove Springs.  Fortunately, some folks have put together a celebration for you and all you have to do is show up between 1 and 5 p.m.

Take a frisbee or a good book and enjoy the spring and the maginificent view of the St. Johns River. Pack a picnic or buy some food - hot dogs, hamburgers, funnel cakes and a bake sale - from the Clay High School Band while you're there. And, since the band's gonna be there, you can probably figure out that music is going to be part of the fun.

For the newer residents or folks outside the county, Spring Park is a wonderful experience and easy to find. Just take U.S. 17 south to Green Cove Springs and follow the banners and signs. Heck, roll your windows down and just follow the music.
