A Memorial Service Butterfly Release will be held at the fairgrounds in Beaverton on June 23rd at 2:00 p.m. They release the butterflies in memory of a family or friend. The butterflies being released are monarch butterflies. To buy a butterfly in memory of a deceased loved one, call Jennifer at 705-432-3322 extension 105.
