            Trailmarker Tree Sculpture Dedication Ceremony

            April 28th, 2018

            The installation and blessing of the Bronze Trailmarker Tree Sculpture ceremony was held in downtown Antioch on Saturday,  April 28th, 2018. The sculpture was created by the artist Dennis Downes who is a resident of Antioch, IL. This location was chosen as a known native American trail to preserve the history of Lake County, IL. Our horticulture committee members put in a lot of effort to design the landscape around the sculpture and help with the planting process. More than half of the members attended the ceremony. We are very proud to be a part of this. The following photos show the chronological progress of this event before and after the scene.
