Volunteers return-June 2020

June 20-Tom Pawlesh, Dave Buechler and Scott Becker worked to clean up the excessive bird droppings at the Wexford Station in preparation for the season opening July 2.  In this photo Tom and Dave use scrub brushes to clean the walls of the building.

Tom brought a pressure washer from home and did a great job scrubbing the Track 32 and 35 doors and floor.  Scott used screen to cover holes in the station where birds were getting in and nesting.  Birds nesting in the TDB and Wexford has been an annual problem made worse this year by the lack of human activity.

Prior to cleaning the station was looking pretty sad...

Kevin and his Dad Doug worked on June 7 to pick out and prep beams for the Fairgrounds Station canopy.

Kevin Zebley came down June 1 and started the work on the roof of the shelter at Fairgrounds.

The Fair donated metal to use for the stringers

The new insulation in the old carbarn has come loose in the back of track 35.  There is a leak in the roof there and we need to get someone in there to fix it.  So far I haven't had any luck with the contractor.

The museum was not able to be a polling place but the elections people did contact to inform us that it was moved to the Chartiers Community Center.  They neglected to post a sign at PTM and those who didn't get the message were still coming by.  Cindy made this sign and posted it on the door.  I stopped by and found that it was helping.
