Barn Survey Volunteer Training

Event Date: March 23, 2019

Location: Apple Museum in Biglerville

In coordination with the Preservation Society of Historic Gettysburg-Adams County (HGAC). Over the past fifteen years, HGAC has added more than 300 barns to the Adams County Barn Registry as a primary component of its Barn Preservation Project. HGAC Barn Preservation Specialist David Maclay will talk about various facets of barn preservation for both novice and seasoned surveyors alike. Following the presentations, participants will venture into the field, fanning out into the countryside to document local barns in a hands-on, fun-filled exploration into the rich diversity of Adams County’s agricultural and architectural legacy. Participation is free of charge and includes breakfast, but advance registration is required by March 20 by contacting David Maclay at 717-677-4000 or dmaclay@mac.com. Begins at 8:30 am.
