Here comes Peter Cotton Tail hopping down the walking trail! That’s right, Peter Cotton Tail is at Clermont’s Historic Village just waiting for individual children to come by and take their picture with him. So, when you are walking along the trail with your children near Victory Pointe or driving by in your car, why not hop on over (pun intended!) to the Village and snap a photo or two of the kids with Peter?
Times like these are especially difficult for children to understand and anything we can do to make their lives as “normal” as possible is a good thing. That is why Peter will be in Clermont until Easter to try and do his part.
The Historic Village may be closed now but the volunteers are all ready to come back and open the doors as soon as it is safe. In the meantime, stay safe, be healthy, and help one another in any way you can even if that is a wave across the back yard fence!
Please visit our Facebook page to see even more photos of the Village and, if you are interested in the history of Clermont or in history in general, why don’t you consider joining the Clermont Historical Society? Membership is just $25.00 per person or $35.00 for a couple annually. Once it is safe, we will not only resume our regular hours but also our monthly meetings that are held on the second Monday of each month in the Train Depot at the Village. The board meeting (open to the public) is at 6:00 PM followed by a presentation at 7:00 PM.
For questions or further information please call 352-242-7734. We hope to see you all when the Village reopens!
