Area children gather at Limberlost for New Year’s celebration

Whistles blew, toys clanged and children sang Auld Lang Syne as Curt Burnette and Randy Lehman pulled the strings to drop the balloons at noon in the Limberlost Gift Shop on Monday. Curt Burnette told those present that although it was noon in Indiana, somewhere they were having a New Year’s Eve midnight celebration, bringing in 2019.
