The Hadley-Luzerne Public library was awarded a grant from the Hawley Foundation for Children. With these funds, the Hadley-Luzerne Public Library, along with students from the Hadley-Luzerne Middle School, is beginning an oral history project concerning the construction of the Stewart’s Dam in Hadley. We would like to interview people who were involved in construction of the dam and also people who have/had family members who were involved. Also, if you have photos of the work in progress we will be able to include that as well.
DVDs will be produced from the interviews and will be given to the Towns of Hadley and Lake Luzerne. DVDs will also be given to other local libraries and local historical societies. There will also be a presentation at the Library by the students who will be working on this project.
Interested people may contact John Plantier, Coordinator, at 696-4285 or the Hadley-Luzerne Public Library at 696-3423.
