“We are expecting upwards of 1,000 visitors for this event,” said Melissa Britt, Chamber Vice President of Operations, “many of whom will be from out of state and even out of country!” At the Kick-off event, visitors will explore fun games, animal attractions, and a rare Geocaching event called the GPS Adventures Maze.
