Face lift for Superintendent's home

Park staff at work on the Superintendent's home
Fayette Historic Townsite park staff is working diligently in cold, windy, fall weather to apply paint provided by the Friends. We can rest easy knowing that this historic structure will be freshly painted before winter sets in.  A special thanks to all the park staff who have worked on this project.  This represents another successful example of cooperation between State Park staff and Friends of Fayette Historic Townsite.  Thank you Friends of Fayette Historic Townsite donors for making this improvement possible. 
"Hanging out" at the Superintendent's house


Thanks to modern technology, the hydraulic bucket hoist makes painting the historic structures easier and safer. For those of you who have been here, the Superintendent's home is the white house on the hill, complete with historical displays for all to enjoy. We hope you'll return in the spring to drift back to another era.
