Some of the Mill Directors discussing the changes /improvements needed |
The mill, before the makeover, had a variety of artifacts from the past and the
millers family was there to greet you. The mill was a working mill that
produced electricity until the turbine was no longer functional. There
are only a few pictures of the inside of the mill before the makeover. |

A hole was cut in the east side of the mill to make room for the turbine
to be lowered into place. |
It took several experts and volunteers to get it in correct alignment. |
