Girls Scouts brighten Nova Community Park with an oak tree; Hippiefest is coming -- watch for Ormond Beach performers; and a 40-year anniversary announcement.

One, two, ‘tree’! Girl Scouts go planting
In its quest to earn its Bronze Award through community service, Girl Scout Troop 343, from Sunrise Service Unit, took a trip to Nova Community Park at the end of May to plant an oak tree near the tennis courts.
The tree was donated by a local company, Fast-Growing-Trees.com.
Ormond Beach’s Tie-Dye Road featured at Hippiefest
Judy Whitehouse, Mark Chiribogo and Nancy Keck, of the Tie-Dye Road band, of Ormond Beach, will weave vocal harmonies through what they call “hot guitar licks” at Hippiefest, Sunday, June 9, at the Peabody Auditorium, 600 Auditorium Blvd., in Daytona Beach.
But that’s just the tip of the entertainment ice berg at the fifth-annual event.
In addition to Tie-Dye Road, which perform around town, at Frappes North and Wings Pizza N Things, Hippiefest will feature live music from 1960s-style bands around Volusia County, as well as food, drinks, art, plants and pottery, face painters, psychics and more.
The street festival, which starts at 3 p.m., is free.
At 7 p.m., the Happy Together Concert, featuring Mark Lindsay (former lead singer of Paul Revere and the Raiders) and Chuck Negron (former singer with Three Dog Night), The Turtles and others, will kick off. Concert tickets are $38 to $49.
Call 671-3462, or visit peabodyauditorium.org.
Congratulations: The Costellos celebrate 40 years!
Former Ormond Beach mayor Dr. Fred Costello and his wife, Linda, who represents Ormond on the Volusia County School Board, will celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary by hitting the road. The two will leave this week to visit Yosemite National Park with family.
