The grand opening of the Franchere Center at Mabee Farm was held today in Rotterdam Junction. There was a nice crowd in attendance -- including a number of descendants of Jan Mabee.
Now that the Franchere Center is open -- the next two big projects to tackle --
#1) finding a permanent and suitable space in either town hall or the senior center to properly store and display town historical records and artifacts
#2) proceeding with developing a formal, concrete plan for Bicentennial Park and securing private, state and federal funding to make it a reality by 2020 |

Yet no one calls it imposing morality to prohibit the taking of life after a child is born. We’re told about a woman’s right to control her own body. But doesn’t the unborn child have a higher right, and that is to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?” – Ronald Reagan |

#1) where they have ALWAYS been ---relatively safe and sound #2) we will go for every private, state and federal grant that can legally be used for the project |

Good place for them - storage right next to a river that historically floods yearly.
Bravo on a great decision there Ronda |

I think this mabee farm has it's place. However, I don't know of many folks who actually go there or attend their events. Some of their events are a bit on the pricey side from what I've been told. It would be interesting to see how many of today's youngsters and young adults really take an interest in that stuff and how it will be received and acknowledged by the next generation.
Has anyone here ever gone there? |

For the record --
#1) the town's collection of historical documents and artifacts are NOT stored at the Mabee Farm (which is owned by the COUNTY historical society) but are housed in town-owned buildings
#2) Mabee Farm's events are very well attended and draw people from across the region, from across the state and from out of state
#3) the Franchere Center at Mabee Farm is well built for its location along the river and the exhibition space and archival spaces are all WELL ABOVE the flood level |

It is interesting -- the NNTP/nayboobs can't seem to respond to any thread by actually sticking to the topic and making a POSITIVE contribution ... all you get from them is negativity and personal attacks. |
