Introducing our Children's Coloring and Activity Book
and "P.D. the Flying Pig" Scavenger Hunt
The book is a journey through the area’s attractions led by our “P.D. the Flying Pig” mascot. P.D. was created by the Arts Center @ 319’s resident artist Val Johnson. The free books are available at the Visitor Center or can be downloaded here:
Each participating shop and attraction has its own P.D. statue hidden somewhere on their premises. Children are challenged to find four P.D.’s, ask someone in the shop or attraction to sign their coloring book then simply take the book to either Smithfield Ice Cream Parlor or Lisa’s Sweet Shop for a FREE ice cream cone!
