Here is the center piece of our Nature Learning/Storytelling Center. It is an incredible storytelling chair. Imagine sharing a story with your children or grandchildren while seated on this incredibly carved chair. Donated by Capt. Dave Lavoie of Little River Artistry in Townsend.

We need to put it under roof and that requires the materials for the Gazebo we are planning. Labor is all volunteer but we need to cover material costs.

Donate Today so that this vision can come to life.
