The Colorful History of the Fly’n B

March 16 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm

$5

The Fly’ n B house and Park has a long and colorful history, including greenhouses, gangsters and planes! On the surface it is a plain Jane, but so much more lies beneath it’s quiet facade.

Hear the fascinating history of this original Landscaping Business owners and builder-Matthew Plews and Family. Over the years the property was sold to local gangster family Smiling Charlie, and then to the manufacturing family of the Eberhardts. Johnny Bowen and family obtained the land, and promptly named it The Fly’n B, as the Bowens had airplanes and runways on the property. Wind Crest purchased the land and deeded the Park and Plews house to HR Metro District. What is in store for this former active and important property?
