GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — There were two big reasons to celebrate Saturday at a party at the Blandford Nature Center in Grand Rapids.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the center, which has helped families and kids in West Michigan embrace the outdoors for decades.
Saturday morning, a birthday brunch was held to commemorate the anniversary and also honor the woman who started it all: founder Dr. Mary Jane Dockeray, who just turned 91-years-old.
