A New Look for Belle Ziegler Park

2011-BELLZIEGLERNext time you're in Belle Ziegler Park, check out the unique wood bench created by Takoma Park's master wood carver Jim Calder (www.wizzardofwood.com). The design includes a turtle and a bear.

The Foundation helped to underwrite the project, which was conceived of by Takoma Plays and Art for the People. Here's a photo of 2011 Azalea Award winner Pat Rumbaugh ("The Play Lady") and the bench. Pat says that a formal dedication ceremony will be held in the spring, so make sure to visit www.takomaplays.org for more information about all of the activities organized by this wonderful community group.
