For decades the corner of Kimball Street and the River Road has been occupied by a gas station. Just about everyone in the area was familiar with Corner Stop, and its long-time owner, Robert Pitkin. Now the corner has a new owner, and a new look.
Callaway Good Life Center hosted a petting zoo for residents and staff on Tuesday June 14. Leron and Merle Beirman and family of Arnold provided a sheep and a goat, Adalei Tullis - also of Arnold - brought a puppy, Laurie Delaune provided two kittens, and Isaiah and AvaLynn Ortez all of Callaway provided a Bearded Dragon for a little variety.
Nine children from Home Grown Kids Daycare joined in the fun, enjoying the animals and coloring pictures for the residents. Fun was had by all.
