Fence Pennies are coming! We hope it will be soon, but we still have a little more work to finish first. Playground grass folks are still working in the park. We will keep you posted so you will know when it is time to find your fence penny!
was intending on purchasing a few of these.....didn't when I saw what a travesty the new park was compared to the old one....big city park in a small town, its out of place, and funds certainly could have been spent in better ways to refurbish the original park
Can't wait to see the penny my sister purchased in memory of my sweet husband, Randy Riffe!❣
