Grey Towers’ board is expanding, new directors sought

MILFORD — Grey Towers Heritage Association, the non-profit organization that supports public and community programs at Grey Towers National Historic Site in Milford, is seeking new members for its volunteer board of directors.
"An energetic board with a diversity of skills, experience and interests is the key to the success of this growing organization," says the announcement.
The volunteer board meets monthly at the historic estate and plans its support for such popular programs as the 8K race, lectures, ice cream social, Festival of Wood, Community Appreciation Day, Edgar Allan Poe and Christmas Carol dramatic readings and more. The organization, formed in 2007, also supports activities at the Laurel Hill Cemetery, on the adjoining Milford Experimental Forest, education programs with area schools, publications and signage and Grey Towers internship and Scholar in Residence programs.
Grey Towers National Historic Site, ancestral home of Gifford Pinchot, eminent conservationist and two-term Governor of Pennsylvania, is managed by the U.S. Forest Service as a conservation education and leadership center. Its iconic position in the national organization brings resource conservation leaders from around the world to its conference center. Their museum and visitor program welcomes 16,000 guests annually.
