Amity March of Daffodils 2021!
As we enter the one-year anniversary of Covid-19, causing shutdowns in Oregon, and all over the world, we “spring” forward. We anticipate leaving all that behind as we celebrate spring, acknowledging its brightness, and message of new beginnings. We look to the daffodil, the chrysalis of hope, as it springs forth like sunshine.
