Shirley Nelson, left and Marge Krieger, take a moment to share their joy at the end of the successful potuck lunch Sunday after dedicating the new shelter at the Blairsburg park. Nelson, who serves on the city council has been spearheading much of the fundraising and has watched as volunteers have come together to expand the facility to serve the community. Behind them, is a table which has both a donation jar and a list of the many donors who helped make the expansion possible. The kitchen is just beyond the table, making the facility easy to use to host medium sized events. The fundraising included a grant from Enhance Hamilton County.
