Big Ridge ranger shares park restoration plans at UC Museum
Big Ridge State Park Ranger Hannah Pascall informed the UC Historical Society about the restoration projects at the park during the November meeting. Ranger Pascall explained that Big Ridge was set up as a demonstration park in 1939 with the buildings and stone works built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). The historical park will have three major renovation projects from 2024 through 2030 including the gatehouse, the cabins and the beach house.
