Work Begins on Walkway at Lasell Hall

Work has begun on the Patriot Walkway in front of Lasell Hall this past week.

Landscaping students of Professor Tim Marten begun removing old and broken bluestone tiles, and carving out sod and dirt to lay the base upon which Patriot bricks will be laid. There will be a center area with plaques honoring the Patriots of the American Revolution. The project is expected to take much of the fall semester, through November. 

With an initial goal of 500 bricks, community members, organizations, and other agencies have contributed bricks honoring militia, patriots, and other citizens who have assisted the Revolution. The Schoharie Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution is most grateful for all the interest in the project, and will continue to accept orders for bricks for at least several more months.
