To celebrate America’s 250th Anniversary, in cooperation with the City of Lake City and Columbia County, our volunteers and friends have painted 250 patriotic rocks and most of them have been hidden around the Lake City and Columbia County areas — and now it’s YOUR turn to go hunting!
If you find one of the special America 250 rocks, log it here and be sure to post on Facebook and tag City of Lake City, Columbia County, Florida, Gateway Art Gallery, and #FreedomROCKSLakeCity
