Thanks for the congrats acook!! I have a few acres of land, most remaining in it's natural state. At my home we have everything from song birds & butterflies to deer, turkeys, fox, pilliated woodpeckers (sp), frogs, turtles.... and more! It is a joy to watch the wildlife for me. After reading the NWF website it helped me understand how I could further preserve my little slice of heaven and support our wildlife.
I agree a garden would be a wonderful addition to our community and it certainly would act as a teaching tool for many. What better lesson in life is to learn how things start and grow... on many levels. This experience could nurture the spirit of giving in our town.
Yes, start a thread on parks in Summerfield. It would be a good thing, as I have seen many written commits on this forum about parks, but they aren't all in one spot.

Steve and Skiddles,
One of my favorite things about being certified is being able to use the enature.com website to update our lists of wildlife seen on the property.
This week we added flying squirrels.

Where then would you propose we put our new Town Hall?
I guess I just thought that it would be nice to have the Town Hall built in the Town Core area and I am sure it will be a long time (if ever) before any more property will be acquired for the town's use.
Who is in favor of a new Town hall ???

I am in favor of a Town Hall. We need room to hold meetings and since the upstairs of the Britain building has been converted to offices there is no where to hold a meeting in the building comfortably if there are more than 5 or 6 people. The Down stairs of the Brittain building could all be used for as a museum and educational area for the schools.
I am in favor of building it on the piece of land the Town owns in "down town" Summerfield which is large enough to do that and have parking also. Could also possibly work out agreements with the surrounding businesses to use their lots for over flow.

| The property would surely be the most practical place for our Town Hall, not only because we own the land, but also because it is near other public buildings (fire station, existing Town Hall)and within town core. The Brittain Building is wondrfully renovated and a jewel for the town, but it is certainly not adequate for municipal offices and town meetings. The museum was great - let's bring it back!

Ditto Starcatchr!
In today's issue of the NWO, Summerfield residents were asked to EMAIL their opinions about whether or not we support the town moving forward on the park in Summerfield.
Please take time to do this to show support for our park! Let's show our council that we want our park!

It would be nice for the architectural style of the new Town Hall to remain in keeping with the traditional style of several of the other buildings in the town core.

The plan for the town hall/substation building was designed to be reminiscent of the old Summerfield train station. That design might be able to be scaled down somehow if the substation part isn't needed. I don't live in Summerfield, but I did like the design -- I'm definitely a sucker for historic buildings.
Mike Stewart was on the building committee, so he could give more details about the design.
You guys have come up with some great ideas here! I love the community garden.
