Time flies! We have just over a month until the CPLHS Annual Conference on July 18th. This year, we will have Bruce Lynn & Ken Czapski as our speakers at the conference. They will be discussing the history behind the life saving stations. In addition to the engaging presentation they will have, we will also have grazing tables catered by Kim Bean, door prizes, raffles and a silent auction.

Register by July 9th to get discounted admission. After that date, the price goes up! Scan the QR code to register today! We hope to see you there!

It’s been a week!

We had several volunteers over the past week that have pitched in to help clean, make repairs, stock and organize the visitors center with the goal to get us ready for opening day. We can’t thank everybody enough! With that being said, we will be open starting tomorrow (5/23) at 10am.

Our daily hours of operation will be from 10am to 6pm.
