Site Preparation

CW&A truck brought a load of gravel donated by Fordyce but got stuck in a rut

to the axle! Then CW&A sent a backhoe to offload the truck.

The truck dumped the rest. The backhoe covered the drains, even in the old observatory!

Reconstruction of the Tonydome

Waiting for Boy Scout Troop 113, K.B. checks the trailered dome and levels the pier.

The troop plans their actions, unloads the trailer, and fits the floor over the pier.

The square walls are set in place and reattached.

The walls went up fast. The cookies were well guarded. And the TonyDome is up!

Crossroads Astronomy Club wishes to thank Fordyce, CW&A, Bill Schulze (the backhoe owner/operator from Tandem Dump Truck Services), John Ellsworth, Boy Scout Troop 113, and K.B. Hallmark for their donations and efforts.
