MASSACHUSETTS STATE POLICE MUSEUM & LEARNING CENTER UPDATE (04-2010)

As reported in update of 10-27-09, the first major preservation and stabilization project was begun at the Museum building in Grafton, MA. The project has been completed. The work done at the building included extensive electrical work, demolition and reconstruction of the walls, ceilings, and replacing a defective carrying beam. The area has been designed to create an audio visual area, and will have display cases for artifacts. Phil Cahill was the “clerk of the works” assisted by Ed Montague. We thank them and congratulate them for their effort.

The pictures will show the project in progress. Committee Member, Retired Lt. Tom McNulty, has begun his voluntary work for the Museum. Tom spends a minimum of one day at the Museum and untold hours at home. His initial project is creating a digital photograph database, pictures of every Class have been completed and retirement photographs from the 1940 era have also been entered. Over 5,000 pictures have been entered, identified and preserved.

Welcome aboard and thank you, Tom.
