Thanks for Tuesday Together Times
On behalf of the Railroad Museum branch of Clinton County Arts Council, I would like to thank the many people and organizations that contributed to the success of Tuesday Together Times (TTT), held this summer in front of the St. Johns Depot. The purpose of TTT was to provide free fun for area families on warm summer evenings, July 16 – August 23.
A big thank you is extended to the following local leaders:
The St. Johns Police Department which provided assistance from Officer Worrall, Auxiliary Officer Shelberg and Administrative Assistant, April Wilson for the bicycle parade down Clinton Avenue, followed by bicycle activities on Railroad Street;
Turning Point Youth Center, under the direction of Diana Yount, for providing both a girl’s and boy’s brand new bicycle, along with the capable assistance of Keith Richard and Sherry Anderson;
Denise Thelen, certified Zoomba instructor for both children and seniors as well as the general population, who provided a great hour of fun and exercise;
Eric Swanson and staff members of PKSA Karate in St. Johns, who provided a Karate demo and a wonderful obstacle course for the kids;
Max Dollarhite, who presented an interesting program and demonstration of radio-controlled model planes;
Sharon Shutes, who delighted kids and adults with her free face-painting artistry
Enthusiastic and energetic volunteers Carey Harris and Dobie Everts who made all events even more fun;
And especially the Kiwanis Club of St. Johns who provided funding so David Wyatt and his amazing bubble machine could be brought in from Holt for the fun-filled finale in which the kids danced and played in an hour-long blizzard of bubbles. Funds were also used to provide each participating child with a small airplane to put together and their own little bubble jars.
