Marshall County Parks and Recreation Board to Purchase Sign for West Township Trustee Cabin

The West Township Trustee cabin will soon get a commemorative sign.

The Marshall County Parks and Recreation Board recently completed a project to move the historic West Township Trustee cabin from its original location at 10108 State Road 17 across from the former West Township School to Memorial Forest at the corner of 14th Road and State Road 17.

Crews from Yoder’s Log and Timber in Nappanee worked to carefully disassemble the log cabin for its new home at Memorial Forest.

It has been reassembled with new windows, doors and security. It is a feature for visitors to witness when visiting Memorial Forest.

The Marshall County Parks and Recreation Board discussed purchasing an aluminum sign that gives history of the cabin, the year of its origin and its use.

The cost is about $770.
