🍀 St. Patrick’s Scavenger Hunt
Collegedale Parks and Recreation is hosting a FREE St. Patrick’s Scavenger Hunt on March 14 from 10 AM to noon.
The hunt will kick off at the pavilion at Imagination Station and then continue along the Wolftever Creek Greenway. The roughly 1.5-mile route will have a series of tasks to complete along the way and offers a festive way for families to enjoy the outdoors together.
Participants who finish before noon will be entered into a prize drawing!

TOGETHER WITH C&C NURSERIES AND LANDSCAPE
🏠 Love Your Lawn This Spring
Spring is almost here, and one of the easiest ways to refresh your home is with a professional bed cleanup and fresh mulch.
Our friends at C&C Nurseries and Landscaping can handle everything from clearing out leaves and trimming back plants to redefining bed edges and laying down new mulch. The result is a yard that looks cleaner, brighter, and well cared for.
It’s one of the most affordable upgrades you can make, and it goes a long way toward boosting curb appeal.
If your landscaping needs a seasonal reset, give C&C Nurseries and Landscaping a call at 312-597-1022 or fill out the form on their website for a free estimate.
