On the Road Again...
The Arc's Recreation Group hit the road for an Orleans County Barn Quilt Tour on April 21, 2013. This tour/trail was started in 2006 by Lora Partyka and local farmers.
The group began the tour at Partyka Farms in Kendall, New York and traveled throughout Orleans County to view more than 40 barns adorned with hand-painted barn quilts.
This was a great outing and individuals enjoyed taking photos to compose a scrapbook.
