MAY 9 WALK AROUND THE TOWNE CANCELLED
BUT YOU CAN STILL ENJOY THE BEAUTY
Respectful of the ongoing public health restrictions to stem the spread of the COVID-19 virus, Mill Creek Village (MCV) and the Mill Creek Towne Garden Club regretfully will not be co-hosting their annual “Walk Around the Towne” on May 9th as scheduled. This annual spring event allows a large group of residents to enjoy each other’s company and the colors of the season together by visiting some of our neighbors’ wonderful gardens. Such large gatherings, however, are not permitted at this time.
We do encourage our neighbors to get exercise on their own or with a family member and take walks in the neighborhood following social distancing guidelines and wearing masks as needed. While you won’t necessarily be able to see some of the gardens located in back or side yards, you will enjoy an array of multi-colored azaleas that are now nearly in full bloom, tulips, daffodils, beautiful dogwood and red maple trees and more. We are truly fortunate to have such awe-inspiring flora where we live and, in this time of uncertainty, it provides nature’s reminder of our continuity and renewal.
For those who cannot get out for such walks, we have tried to capture some of the joy of spring in our neighborhood on the MCV website at www.millcreekvillage.org/gallery/#flowers in the “Walk Around the Towne” section of our photo “Gallery” under “News & Events.” The photos may not do justice to the magnificent colors, but they certainly provide a joyful flavor of what beauty abounds in our community. Maybe we captured your home in these photos.
In the absence of our annual Walk event, we hope you’ll be able to take a walk yourself and gain some pleasure from our photos. If you would like to share photos of your colorful lawn and garden with us, please send them to mctvillage@gmail.com. Please stay safe and well everyone!
