Spencer Crest Nature Center , Corning NY 1 ID: 1252 Categories: We were granted $2000 in 2008 to construct a rock garden adjoining a pavilion built by Rotary honoring Bob and Hertha Rockwell. Bob was a strong supporter of the nature center. He grew up in Colorado on his father's ranch and would return with his family every summer. The plan is to use as many plants native to Colorado that will survive in the east. Photo by Bill Plummer. Created: Thu 12 of Nov., 2009 User: Todd Boland (575x323) (98420 Bytes) [2584 Hits] |
