The UFO of Daniels Park
It has been reported that on Thursday, April 7, 1966 six teenagers were talking under a park shelter at a picnic site in Daniels Park. At 11:40 pm they heard footsteps on the roof of the shelter followed by seeing a large humanoid figure passing in front of a light in a nearby field. The teens then witnessed four football shaped objects with changing colors that were moving and making sounds in the sky. They tried to leave the area but the car’s engine would not immediately start. When it did, the lights then followed them from the picnic site. Two days later on Saturday April 9th at least 50 cars were in the park using Geiger counters, tape recorders, telescopes and binoculars looking for signs that the claims the teenagers made were true. The then sheriff dismissed them as a dream and that there was nothing to the claims. There was however a picture (above) taken on March 31, 1966 in Daniels Park showing a round red light with an intense yellow center. UFO or NO?

I am sure he would love to get a card from his many old friends.
