The intersection of Hwy 42 and Lock Blvd in Hastings has organically evolved into a sculpture park. The owners of the property, Harry and Patty Benjamin have graciously allowed Dale to display his sculptures there for nearly 10 years.
In a recent interview with Maureen McNearly at KDWA Radio, they asked the community to give their thoughts and ideas for a name for the sculpture park.
