Ta-Da! "Kids on the Ridge" had an industrious spring session, crafting a slew of benches — all the way from windfall trees into painted masterpieces! You’ll find them sprinkled throughout the Study Retreat acreage (and a few on Rolling Ridge Conservancy trails, as well!), in spots the kids thought would be perfect for visitors to pause and take in the sights and sounds. Enjoy!
