ARCADIA Trivia:  Did you know that Arcadia Elementary is named after the Arcadia Apple Orchard, which was the world’s largest apple orchard?  The orchard was irrigated with water coming from Loon and Deer Lakes.  Because of the large amount of water used, these two lakes were nearly drained dry!  The orchard was only in operation for about 20 years.  Want more information…read the sign on the north-west corner of the Arcadia playground.
