Exelon Dresden Nuclear Power Station,
Our Good Neighbor to the East of us...

2008 - Windmill parts so a windmill can be built in the location near the small lake in front of  the Cragg Cabin.  Hopefully the windmill will be in place summer of 2008.

Windmill parts and the pump were ordered by Bob Strange of Area Well and Pump.  As things have been received different volunteers have been adding things to the Windmill site location.  Below you see the new pump being installed by Area Well and Pump employees.  This pump will bring the water up from underground.

On September 20th, 2008, the Partners, and Park Administrators met with the Exelon Dresden Community Outreach Committee to commemorate the presentation with a large Check.
