Burying the Time Capsule
Cleveland Cultural Gardens November 20, 2016
The Cleveland Cultural Gardens Federation ended their Centennial Year by burying a time capsule at the Kiosk of the Gardens on MLK Blvd. The time capsule has information and artifacts about the Gardens and also Cleveland in 2016. (Go Cavs, Go Tribe) It will be opened in 25 years in 2041.
Paul Burik was the main person behind the time capsule project.

A crowd gathered on a cold Sunday afternoon to bury the time capsule.
In this video you can see some last minute signatures on the time capsule and CCGF president Sheila Crawford adding a last minute item. Then the capsule was sealed and Paul and Sheila placed it in the ground. Then attendees took turns planting a daffodil bulb around the time capsule.
