Museum and Dam Project Completed

The E.O. Austin Home/Historical Society and The Austin Dam Memorial Association have completed their 2014 beautification project which was to purchase and install a split-rail fence on the east side of Galeotti's Parking Lot.  The project is part of an ongoing venture by the two organizations to beautify the Community of Austin by making it more appealing for those visiting our area.

The pictures below were provided by Ronnie Ebbert, President of the E. O. Austin Home/Historical Society: Note that Bryan Moate volunteered his services without charge
