All funding of those renovations, maintenance and activities is through donations, grants, membership and fund raising.
WE ARE OPEN FOR THE SEASON!
Come join us on the fourth Sunday of the month, May through September, when the buildings are open for the season. The buildings will be open from 1 pm until 4 pm with docents available to provide information. Come admire the progress that has been made to the renovation of the 1919 Botting Road Machine Shed. Come view the new additions to the artifacts stored throughout the buildings and the park grounds. Come be amazed at what history has to say to you.

The food was great, the company was great, the ambiance was amazing!
