Camp Reynolds Historical Marker
Recovered - 6/28/2013 |
|
#1 Goal Realized |
|
Missing for
13 years, the
Camp
Reynolds
Historical
Marker has
been
recovered. |
|
After being
hit by a
vehicle in
December of
1999, the
marker was
stolen.
|
|
Toward the
end of May
2013, Art
Williams,
the Camp
Reynolds
Project
Manager, was
contacted by
Dion
Magestro. In
the fall of
2012 he
purchased
the marker
at the
Mercer
Company, a
salvage yard
in Sharon,
PA. He
inquired
whether the
Camp
Reynolds
Project
might be
interested
in the
marker. |
|
Art
let
Dion know that
the marker
had been
stolen. Upon
hearing that, he
was more
then glad to
return the
marker back
to the State
of PA
without
charge. |
|
A
meeting was
arranged for
the end of
June. Art,
along with
Nick
Nottingham,
a junior at
Reynolds
High School,
went and
picked up
the marker. |
|
With the
help of
Karen Galle,
the State
Historical
Marker
Coordinator
arrangements
were made
for Art to
drop off
the marker
to
Clearfield
Electric in
Clearfield,
PA. There the
marker will be
refurbished
and be put back
up at a
later date.
