The event was held at the new Lakehill environmental center on Ferguson, and if you haven’t stopped by what Lakehill calls the Roger Perry Campus, it’s a site to behold. That area is a bit scuffy on the edges, but this facility is nestled among a bunch of trees that I didn’t even know existed from driving by, and it feels as if you’re outdoors even when you’re not.
