The Christian County Historical Society brought the community together for its annual Earth Day Celebration on Sunday.  Visitors had the opportunity to take part in special activities, visit unique exhibits, and buy goods from local vendors and organizations. 

One new feature of this year’s celebration is the Jim Blakely Memorial Pie Auction.  Jodi Heberling, Co-President of the Christian County Historical Society, says the auction successfully raised a lot of funds. 

Among the organizations selling goods was Troop 132 of the Boy Scouts of America.  Bill Lamb, the troop’s Scout Master, says the scouts’ efforts are meant to encourage others to take up more environmentally friendly practices.
