News from the Furnace Task Force

Our next meeting is tomorrow, July 11 at 7pm. We meet the first Tuesday of each month. We are currently working on offering tours to the furnace (see CLN website under events for dates and details), developing interpretive signs to go along the trail, trail maintenance, and review of the Historic Structure Report and Conditions Assessment to determine what steps to take next to preserve the furnace and the surrounding cellar holes. If you are interested in being a working member please email Betz Gibbs, chair at edgeofthewoodsart@gmail.com.
