Save a copper smelter! - jbaakko - 03-23-2009 <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://coppercountrypreservation.org/index.html">http://coppercountrypreservation.org/index.html</a><!-- m --> I found out about this plan to save the Quincy Smelter in Ripley (Hancock) MI a few months back, but never really thought twice about it. My dad worked there when he was younger, so we got to talking about it today, he said they got enough money to place a roof on s few of the buildings, to stop any future damage. They still need more money to preserve the site and turn it into a museum. From the site: Quote:Why Is It Important? If you're open to donating, they could use some money. I'm not involved, just a concerned preservationist... <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://coppercountrypreservation.org/donate.html">http://coppercountrypreservation.org/donate.html</a><!-- m --> |
