PHOTO BY GREG LEE Many of the volunteers involved in the carousel project in a photo taken Aug. 1, exactly two years since the mast was raised into position with the help of volunteers and EPUD crews. D edicated volunteers have donated some 7,000 hours of time to a dream to bring the carousel back to South Lane County. On Aug. 1, 2017, volunteers with the aid and help of EPUD crew and a crane, raised the mast to an ab- solute vertical level position, mea- suring and drilling holes to attach the mast to the platform. The mast supports the entire revolving car- ousel. That was one of the first steps in the total restoration of the 1929 Hershall 36-foot, 34-animal me- nagerie carousel. Two years later, the restoration of the carousel is almost complete. Testing of the electronic com- puterized drive system is still on- going and some lighting must be added. It is indefinite when the carousel will be certified by a ride inspector and passed by OSHA, but the carousel will be open to the public soon. “We are approaching donations from industry businesses — elec- tronics, bearings, wood, etc., near the $90,000 mark,” said Don Wil- liams, Board Chair of the Friends of the Cottage Grove Carousel, “along with 7,000 work hours by electricians, millwrights, painters, carvers and other crafted people. Many thanks to King Estates for allowing us use of part of their warehouse in the Industrial Park in Cottage Grove as a long-term temporary home for the carousel. “And it is donations from folks in our community that have bought the less expensive items, such as paint, advertising and pro- motions. Once again, there are no paid employees — this is 100 per- cent volunteer group of dedicated individuals.” Upcoming fundraisers to sup- port the carousel include: • Men from SURF, a musical fundraiser for the carousel, will be held Sunday, Aug. 25, from 4 to 6 p.m. at Calvary Chapel in Cottage Grove. • A golf tournament benefitting the carousel tees off Sept. 21. For details, contact Linda at 541-913- 9586 or Donald Williams at 541- 942-4752. The Friends of the Cottage Grove Carousel is a 501(c)(3) non- profit organization working to acquire funding for a permanent home for the carousel. It’s Your Subscription.
