Receiving Vault

At the annual meeting of 1972, the resolution was passed for a receiving vault to be built to the side of the cemetery. $1000 from manse sale revenue was voted to be used for the project and residents were asked to contribute the necessary additional funds. The vault serves its intended use during the winter months and is used for equipment storage during other seasons.
