    Photo gallery: The Preserve turns 50

    The Preserve Association marked 50 years with a week-long celebration from July 19 to July 24. Events throughout the week included a garden tour, bingo, a pickle ball tournament, a petting zoo (with llamas) and a street dance. The celebration brought in Preserve members and visitors from outside of Eden Prairie.

    Saturday’s celebration saw dreary weather resulting in rescheduling events during the day, but by night the street dance went on as planned. The sun was back out for Sunday’s beach blast.
