The HGI Annual Meeting will be on June 17th at the Georgetown
Community Center at 10:00 a.m. Following the meeting, a box-lunch
picnic will be held at the site of the Dibbons Mill and Sidney
Mine along the Waldorf Road. The location of the open-air picnic
was chosen to commemorate the 100-year anniversary of the opening
of the Argentine Central Railroad to the Waldorf Basin.

For those interested in historical investigation,
we will attempt to identify the exact location of the Sidney water
tank along the old railroad grade, which is the current Waldorf
Road. This will involve examining old photos of the railroad and
taking a short walk to the approximate water-tank site. Those who
wish to remain at the picnic site may choose to be regaled by historic
tales of the area. Transportation to the picnic site will be arranged
before and during the annual meeting. |
