Support the Museum

WITH MUCH GRATITUDE!

The Museum recently received two grants to support additional development in programs and facilities.

~ FROM LANDFALL FOUNDATION: $4000 to establish a "Train Camp" for the summer of 2012.  We'll be organizing several one-week sessions to stimulate creativity and imagination within the context of railroading and model railroad pastimes.  Geared for grade-shoolers, these sessions will be part education, part activity, and part skill-building, based on an age-appropriate curriculum and adult mentoring.

~ FROM CAPE FEAR GARDEN CLUB: $2984 to beautify Railroad Heritage Square with planters and shrubbery.  Now that area construction is complete, we installed touches that soften the industrial aspect of Warehouse B and are consistent with surrounding streetscape improvements.  Improvements include columnar greenery around the 1855 station bell, and planters near the end of the wheel lathe and access ramp.
