Thank you to board member Anthony Kowalchick for his work to make this happen - 6 years in the making! We would also like to thank Huron Clinton Metroparks, Oakland Township Historic District Commission, the Shelden Foundation, and the State of Michigan for their support. It’s a treasure to have this piece of history saved forever!
