A Thing of Beauty To Behold

Remember this?

It's the old concession stand on the bathhouse. Horrible, isn't it?


We tore the whole thing down. Then we built a nice retaining wall, sided the back of the building, put in windows, and filled the foundation of the concession stand with rubble and dirt, as you can see here.

And WA-LAH, here is the finished product, a thing of beauty to behold.

Widow's Peak

This weekend we will be hosting the Widow's Peak Music Festival. They were here last year and will be back bigger and better this time around. They have a beautiful website at www.widowspeakmusicfestival.com where you can find information about the bands and buy tickets. We would love to have you attend the festival.

If you are interested in volunteering at the park before, during or after the festival (volunteers are our favorite people) we always welcome your help. Leave a comment here or contact me at ellie@stonehousepark.net for more information. Thanks!
