‘COLD GOLD’

MAY 15, 2022 — PDF of a Kim Williams program pertaining to the lucrative ice-harvesting business that prospered year-round in the Poconos in the early 1900s. Not only were smaller quantities of ice from local ponds used as a preservative, but tons of ice were hauled 100 miles or more in railroad cars that accessed at least 19 lakes between Saylorsburg and Gouldsboro.

FEBRUARY 13, 2022 — Video presentation on “The Lost Town of Warnertown” by Bill Leonard of the Coolbaugh Township Historical Association on February 13, 2022, at the Wills Mansion. (Filmed and edited by Seymour Mac Productions, Ltd.)
