StoryWalk® is a fun, educational activity that places a children's storybook along a walking trail within the community. This project was created to help build children's interest in reading while encouraging healthy outdoor activity for all. Stories along the Storybook Trail will change monthly, April-November, with a break during winter months. The Storybook Trail is located east of the dog park with parking available off Ella Street.
