A great time was had by all who attended the opening reception of the Elkhorn Heritage Trail exhibit on May 10th! That the Elkhorn Creek and its surroundings are a little bit of paradise on earth is no surprise to those who have walked its banks, or enjoyed fishing and canoeing its waters. The Sunny Sixteens have captured so many elements with great skill and artistry. Sunlight and shadow, snow and ice, misty mornings, bluebells, robins, ducks, barns, rock walls, and mysterious pathways intrigue the eye, and stir the heart. This beautiful photographic narrative is an invitation to walk the trails, and really get to know Scott County’s great natural resource.

Judge/Executive George Lusby and Representative Charles Hoffman were so gracious to come to the opening and offer a few remarks and reminiscences. Judge Lusby laments that he didn’t carry a camera along with him on his lifetime of fishing trips. Both Mr. Lusby and Mr. Hoffman have a great love for the Elkhorn and for Georgetown and Scott County. Thanks to both of these great public servants for always looking out for the good of the community.

The photographers have provided a beautiful show which will be on view through May 27, with gallery hours 12 to 4 pm, Tuesdays through Saturdays. So come on down to the Arts & Cultural Center and view this incredible tribute to the Elkhorn Creek and to the Elkhorn Heritage Trail!
