Pansies have been planted downtown! The commons, West State, and Cayuga streets are now full of color! Thanks to the 15 people who joined us to help get this project complete in RECORD TIME! Seriously, about 2,000 pansies planted in under 2 hours. The volunteers in this photo are just a few of the awesome folks who helped!
