Discover nature and history at the new McCammon Creek Park by Preservation Parks of Delaware County, spanning 248 acres of reforested woodlands, streams, and nearly five miles of connected multi-use trails. The highlight of the park is the landmark early-1900s Bicentennial Barn, thoughtfully restored with its original hand-hewn beams and slate roof to serve as a vibrant community and event space for visitors traveling along nearby I-71.

The public is invited to a Community Open House on Saturday, August 22 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Bicentennial Barn, 6840 Bale Kenyon Road, Lewis Center. Visitors will enjoy a variety of park and farm themed activities, guided hikes along new trails, and tours of the renovated barn.

📖Stroll Highland Lakes Team: Linger a Little Longer

One foot in summer, and one eye on what’s next.

In many ways, August is a different kind of month. The season hasn't shifted, but something has. The days are still long, the sun still delivers, but there's a current underneath it, a quiet pull toward what comes next. Calendars that sat empty start filling again. The group chat moves from where we're going to when practice starts.
Summer isn't done. The cooler is still stocked, and there's a good chance a road trip is still on the calendar. But the fall is taking shape in the background, that weekday rhythm picking back up. In this issue of Stroll Highland Lakes, we hold both. The long weekend and the early morning. The morning yard work and the afternoon football game.

There's something useful about this time of year. It's not nostalgia exactly, it's more like inventory. What worked this summer? What do you want to bring with you to the next stretch? The best parts of the season don't have to end; they just shift. The grill is still going on Tuesday. The early morning run that started as a vacation habit becomes the fall routine. As we head into these final weeks of summer, this issue is built to meet you where you are and get you excited for what's next.

✨Young Achievers~The Trials of The Century: Students Reinvent Classic Fables

Back in May, for this year’s eighth-grade showcase, the Drama Club
presented The Trials of the Century. This pair of plays dramatized the trials of the Big Bad Wolf and Goldilocks. Four Highland Lakes students were among those cast to bring this creative production to the stage.

Gabby W., whose family has lived in Highland Lakes since 2008. In this year’s production, Gabby played Red’s grandmother — the role she had wanted most —and brought plenty of laughs to the audience. She plans to continue pursuing theater opportunities and also enjoys art, especially drawing, and playing the cello.

Edmund G., a resident of Highland Lakes since 2012, played the important role of The
Judge in The Trials of the Century. His favorite aspects of being in the production included acting and spending time with friends who were also in Drama Club. Edmund became involved in theater in the fall of seventh grade and is also a Boy Scout, plays violin in orchestra, and plays clarinet in band. Despite his busy schedule, he hopes to continue theater in the future.

Stella E’s family has lived in Highland Lakes for a decade. As a sixth-grader, Stella was
cast as Sydney Grimm in The Trials of the Century. Stella especially enjoyed collaborating with the cast and crew and building new friendships. An avid artist and craft-maker in her spare time, Stella is enthusiastic about continuing with theater.

Evy E., who recently finished eighth grade, comes from a family that has
called Highland Lakes home for 25 years. In The Trials of the Century, Evy played the Fairy Godmother, who served as the prosecution lawyer in the story. Evy appreciated the opportunity to participate in a play with a court case style.

As the curtain closed on The Trials of the Century, these Highland Lakes students left with new memories, new friendships, and excitement for future opportunities on stage.
