Summary
In early August 2005, Jim Wojan donated an Adams Leaning-wheel Grader #10 to the Historical Society, and a crew moved it through trees and sand into a roofed display at the Mabel and A. J. Roy Heritage Park across from the Library. The roof had been built with Lighthouse School learning and community-service involvement.
