Historical society seeks donations

Posted

EQUINUNK, PA — The Equinunk Historical Society (EHS) is working on two projects, and it could use some help. 

The EHS Calder House Museum has been selected as the northernmost site on a new art trail traversing the length of Wayne County along Route 191. It is partially funded by a grant from the Wayne County Community Foundation. 

This is a community-led pocket park project. Local artists are donating their time and artwork. Neighborhood volunteers are donating time and services to make this happen for the whole community and visitors to Wayne County. But additional funds are needed for material costs to prep the site for this outdoor display.

The Joel Hill Sawmill offers free demonstrations of a Civil War-era, water-powered mill. The EHS is requesting grant money to dredge the mill pond of accumulated silt from the heavy rainfall and dam repairs in recent years. 

The EHS needs to show community support for this project with some matching funds

For more information about the projects, call EHS at 570/224-6722 if you would like more information about these projects. Tax-deductible donations can be mailed to Equinunk Historical Society, PO Box 41, Equinunk, PA, 18417.
