First concrete is poured for museum footings.

Thanks to Trapp Bros. Concrete for all their help and support. First load of cement is poured.

Mason, Bill Cleveland lays one row of block. Next will be the wood frame walls. The main section of the museum has 11 ft. ceilings height. Heat in the floor should make for a cozy Northwoods museum (especially for the volunteers that have to be there for long periods)

Panelized walls arrive, Thursday, December 8, 2005. They were built in Wausau, WI. by Riverstone Building Systems.

Roof trusses arrive Friday, December 9, 2005. Should look like a building before Christmas.
