Leadership Beatrice Class Installing StoryWalk, at Trailhead Park

BEATRICE - Members of a Leadership Beatrice Class are spearheading installation of a Story Walk project, at the downtown Beatrice park, this week.
The project, previously planned for Riverside Park, was moved to Trailhead Park across from the Gage County Museum, because of ongoing concerns over flooding.
