So, Vermilion in Bloom has classes like this on a year-round basis to get the community involved. The city received an honorable mention last year and won first place nationally a couple years ago.

I knew about the mosaics class and went to Marc's and Goodwill in advance and got dinner plates for 50 cents a plate.

I wrapped them up in a towel and smashed them with a hammer.

It's unlike anything we've seen in the community and really around the country. We truly have a very special facility here in Omaha.

The ideal person is out in the community getting feedback from other parents. We don't want hermits. We don't want anybody with a cause. . . . We're looking for parents with solid judgment who want to raise healthy kids and know that a lot goes into it.

We do not receive any funding from the Girl Scouts. It's all run on community support.
