Dedication of the Ben Franklin Kite Labyrinth was held Oct. 29, 2009 with around 50 people attending. Beth Burgoon and Sherry Williams gave information about labyrinths and how this one came to be through many hard working hours of HART members. This is a beautiful serene site that many will enjoy for years to come.
