wildlife and research. The Reserve also includes a restored barn and the
Lochry Blockhouse, an American Revolutionary War era building. The day

crafters. There will also be various vendors and items available
including: Women of the Cloud Forest, country style, glass block lights,
sweatshirts, Little Mahoning Creek Pottery, rag rugs, knitted items,
baked goods and much more. In addition, music, hot drinks and walks on
the nature trails will be provided. The nature trails throughout the
Reserve are open year-round, seven days a week, from dusk until dawn.
The Winnie Palmer Nature Reserve also offers one-hour program/tours for
groups during hours of operation. A donation is requested. The Winnie
Palmer Nature Reserve was established in memory of Winnie Palmer, golf
legend Arnold Palmer's late wife. Prior to her death in 1999, Mrs.
Palmer, a friend of Saint Vincent and former Board of Directors member,
mentioned thoughts of protecting the land from over development and
preserving the view of the College from Route 30. To be added to the
