Posted - July 06 2018 : 08:50:41 AM The Pequawket Alliance had a meeting at the Fort at #4 last May 6, and will have another this fall. |

Posted - July 06 2018 : 08:40:24 AM They are all Pequawket Alliance, and all live in New England. Not sure where. For me, New England is a place, north of New York, and close to Canada. The distances don't register as being all that far away from each other. I think of Fort Niagara as not very far from Ticonderoga. I regularly "run up the road" to Fort Dobbs which is just over 2 hours away. Or Martin's Station and Fort Loudoun, which are 3-4 hours away. The Pequawkets have a couple of meetings a year at the Fort at #4. |

Posted - July 05 2018 : 8:14:54 PM Fitz - are those folks you mentioned part of a "Pequawket Alliance" unit in THIS area??? - I can't imagine they drive up here from your area for any meetings??? |

Posted - July 05 2018 : 10:05:45 AM No Fitz, - I don't really "know" anyone that works or volunteers there & have never been to a meeting. The woman working at the counter in the gift shop - is "the definition of pleasant" and with a great sense of humor. Something lacking in many folks today. - I keep thinking about a membership, but it's a two hour drive each way. - Should just send a donation instead. |

Posted - July 04 2018 : 11:07:38 AM It's kinda "off the beaten path" & not in a "touristy area" - so events are probably not as large as at other places. It's about a two hour drive for me & I live in N.H. It appears money is tight & in some areas it needs a new roof - so there's always a drive on for donations. You can "buy a patch of roof" with a small donation - by placing a sticker on the area you want it applied to. There's a drawing of the roof areas in need in the gift shop at the entrance, which I pick an area every year & add a few bucks. ... Always make a couple of pilgrimages every year. - I've ALWAYS said I intended to make that "Harvest Dinner" in the late Fall ... hopefully this year. |

Posted - July 04 2018 : 10:49:01 AM That is a place I would like to go. My unit, the Pequawket Alliance, is heavily involved with it and has meetings there. But it is a long way for me to drive.
