Sterling HIstorical Society

September 9th , 2020 this is where the men are in the restoration.

July 14, 2020 I'm sorry I haven't been keeping all of you updated The inside of the Caboose is being finished, the floor,the walls, the benches, the sections under the cupola, painting the ceiling hopefully with a paint sprayer. That would be easier and faster. The inside will be painted a two tone grey. Darker on the bottom and the the lighter will go on the top section. We picked up the custom built doors on July 4th, what a beautiful job !! Hoping by this fall it will be done, what a relief that would be . Labor of Love for sure. Pictures will follow I promise.

June 25, 2020 The Sterling Historical Society received a grant today from the William G Pomeroy Foundation for $1,000. I applied to them for help with the repl...acement of the Signal Tower roof. This grant along with our memberships generous donations we are able to do the maintenance on our Sterling Heritage Park. Our Signal Tower is one of the very few around and we want to keep it in great shape for years to come and for our visitors who have never seen one. Thank You to the William G. Pomeroy Foundation and our membership!! See more

Here's is the way it started in April,2020

Here is what has been happening at the Caboose before, during and now. Leigh is getting ready to seal the floor, working on the benches and storage area. I will try to find the last photo of the floor sanded and walls done until ready for painting.
