On April 9, 2004, volunteers broke ground for the Industrial
Hall
Expansion. Site preparation was carried out by CAMA members Jim
Daly, Bob Hungerford, and Jim Robinson.
|
ABOVE:
On April 12, 2004, footings were poured and on April 16, 2004 the
foundation was poured. Work was suspended on the expansion until
after the Fall Festival.

Following the Fall Festival, CAMA volunteers worked to build the four
roof trusses
shown in the background. Thanks to Jim Anderson, Dave Barrett, Jim
Daly, Dick Greene, Bob Hungerford, Irene Jones, John Pawloski,
and Bob Pitcher for contributing to this construction. In
mid-Demember, Pine Ridge Pole Barns
began framing (shown foreground).

ABOVE:
On 1/2/05, the Tom Laganga of DBL Crane Service arrived and assisted
Pine Ridge in erecting the wall segments
and the trusses. CAMA thanks Tom for donating his crane
services. The custom cut lumber for the job came from
Moore's Sawmill.

ABOVE:
At the end of the day on Jan. 2nd, we had something that looked more
like a building and less like a pile of lumber.
|
ABOVE:
After Jan. 2nd, the weather declined rapidly, and a series of
snowstorms and cold blasts slowed work. Even with bad weather, by Jan.
15, the purlins were in place.

ABOVE:
Fast forward to 2/8/05 and look at the progress! The monitor is framed,
sheathed and sided. The building is now weathertight. Work is now
suspended until the windows arrive.
|
ABOVE:
The C.H. Brown steam engine now has a roof over it's head! Once the
windows arrive and are installed, the original south wall of the
Industrial Hall will be removed. The existing doors and windows
will be bumped out to the new south wall.
