“My kids always enjoy the fair but this year was particularly well done. They loved how interactive the puppet show was and I loved the messaging behind it about being a good friend and thinking of the environment. We enjoyed the acrobats, very talented and entertaining to watch. The boys also enjoyed the bike show and the wild animal show. The free inflatable area was really nice and the partnership with the local library for a ribbon for a free ride for reading in the summer was such a nice touch. Air conditioned exhibits are a nice break from the heat. The kids that were showing their animals were great, they showed the kids all kinds of things that come with raising animals. The fair was also extremely affordable, I think I spent less than $20 to entertain my kids from 11-5. They loved the train that takes them around the fair and all of the volunteers/staff were friendly. The exhibit at the beginning where they go through and collect all the items for a prize is always fun too. Great job! Looking forward to next year.”
“The Park Inn Hotel is one of only two standing examples of hotels designed by Frank Lloyd Wright (the other is in Japan). This hotel has been through a lot! And the restoration speaks volumes to the TLC that has been put into keeping this landmark alive. The guided tour is more than worth the $10 donation (and the rates at this beautiful hotel are in line with most budget chain motels/hotels in town). Take your time examining the detailed woodwork, windows, tile, door design and more.”
“I love this place I found my dog Daisey here. I stop in once in a while to visit with the animals. Stop in sometime and check them out you might find your best friend.”

“My mother has been there since December of 2019 and has received the best of care. The nurses have all been very kind and concerned about her. We receive updates from staff by phone and text. They make sure she's bathed and presentable. All the staff that we have encountered is friendly and helpful when we have had questions.”
“The volunteers there are very friend and they don't judge a person at all. Nor do they ask a bunch of pushy questions about your lifestyle or if you go to church or not. I go every month to get food and the shelves are always well stocked with food.”
