The former dry cleaners and Minco Minstrel buildings as they
appeared August 2003. |
|
On Tuesday, March 16, 2004, volunteer Eugene Vickrey
demolishes what is left of the buildings with his backhoe/front end
loader. He and Roy Koerner each provided a dump truck for debris
removal. |
|
The machine took out two large trees as well. |
|
Roy Koerner waits for his dump truck to be filled. |
|
Bill Ocker clears out fallen trees for removal. |
|
The final wall comes tumbling down. |
|
By 5:00 PM, the lot is cleared. |
|
The Minco Historical Society Executive Committee voted
Eugene Vickrey a Lifetime Membership in recognition of his outstanding
contribution. Presenting the membership to Eugene is Marvin
Woodworth, society president, and Conn Charlton, vice president. |
|
And this now empty lot is where the Minco Historical
Society and Museum will be located. |
