Saving Camp Evans,
with all it's history, to create the
InfoAge Science-History Center
took thousands of hours and lots of hard work by many volunteers.
We did research to discover Camp
Evans history.
We have started a Communication history achive and a library.
We fixed, painted, raked, repaired.
We nominated the Camp Evans Historic District to the
National Register of Historic Places to protect
the unique site
We wrote the appication to have the Camp Evans
Historic District transfered to Wall Township to establish the
InfoAge Science-History Center
We applied and had Camp Evans made an offical
project of Save America's Treasures and
Preserve America.
etc....
As our momentum has grown and more members have joined we have
persons working at Camp Evans nearly every weekend and often
evening during the week.
Here are links to some of work over the years. More work
has gone on then these photos have captured.
Sometimes we took photos while we were hard at work....
