Jerry Gerry, who was part of the founding committee establishing our site in 1978 and has served as a board member since, is also a master woodworker. Over the past few months, he has constructed a beautiful display case with the assistance and input of Dr. Adrien Hannus, our site’s lead archaeologist. It shows off native plants and their multifaceted uses by the indigenous people of the past and present - including those at our site 1,000 years ago.
