Included in those helping put thousands of flowers along the southern gateway to town is Kyla Palomaki, 8. During the early years of the effort only petunias were planted, but the project has been expanded to include a wide variety of flowers that brighten up the area throughout the summer. Petunia Pandemonium is sponsored by the Marquette Beautification and Restoration Committee. (Journal photo by Adelle Whitefoot)
