It is easy to meet or make a friend at Morrison Farmers’ Market, located behind Morrison’s Heritage Museum, 202 E. Lincolnway, Morrison, IL. 

These cute canines were among several pets who received doggy treats and a neckscarf from the Friends of the Parks Foundaton, on Saturday, July 13, 2013.

 

 

Two Morrison females went home with a new bicycle, compliments of the FOP Foundation.  Elizabeth Vance won the child’s drawing; Debbie Watson posed with her adult bike.  This photo was taken by Judge Bill McNeal.

Preliminary engineering has begun on the Morrison-Rockwood Trail, a long-term goal of the FOP.  It is expected to be completed by year’s end.

Fundraising continues for the project.  FOP will pay the 20% portion of the Illinois Department of Natural Resources grant which belongs to the City of Morrison.

Eight FOP board members are shown with the bicycles they donated.  Shown left-to-right are The Honorable Bill McNeal, Susan Jakobs, Stan Mitick, Ann Slavin, Barb Benson, Glen Ackeberg, Bob Brandon, and Marc Adami.

When completed later this year, the Morrison-Rockwood Trail will be a fine place to ride a bike or walk a dog.
