Giving Thanks for All We Have
We have much to be thankful for this year. The Celery Pond is still intact and the blue herons still have their fishing grounds. It is the intention of a growing number of people to preserve this wetland for all to enjoy.
The Celery Pond Advocates benefit was very lively last Saturday night with close to 60 people attending. The South Havenites were glad to meet both Chuck Nelson from the Sarett Nature Center and the wetland specialist Delavan Sipes. These two professionals reminded us to appreciate what we have and to maintain the wetland for our children and the future. With the monies raised at this event, we are moving forward to acquire the non-profit status whose intent is to acquire and manage the wetland and surrounding areas, turning them into a nature sanctuary.
If you care to contribute, please make checks payable to Celery Pond Advocates, PO Box 693, South Haven, MI 49090. We also have caps and bags for sale in both Whimsy and Renaissance stores on Phoenix Street. They’re great gifts for Christmas as well as being something you could use too.
