First Day of Spring

Thu, Mar 20th 2025 10:01 am by Matt Schrimpf Events

Happy 1st Day of Spring!  The first day of spring is more than just a change in the weather—it represents something of a symbolic moment. It’s an opportunity to shed old habits, work on new routines, and embrace optimism. Whether you take a long walk outside, start planning a garden, or simply enjoy the sunshine, the first day of spring serves as a reminder that life never stops and is constantly evolving.  With each new season comes the chance for growth and transformation.

"You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream."
C.S. Lewis
