Historic Documents of Skillman Village

Any towns' building plans (many more than 80 years old) need to be cataloged and properly stored. The Township Planning Director and Engineer will work closely with a scout to undertake this important task.

The idea is to research and document the historic cemetery at the North Princeton Developmental Center (now known as Skillman Village). The Township has many old documents that need to be reviewed so that a compendium of those buried there – perhaps with a brief history – can be assembled. It is critical that this history not be lost. The Township now owns this cemetery and will care for it until a future time when it may be transferred to another entity. The document that is produced by the scout would likely be displayed at a museum that documents the history of the site. The scout does not necessarily need to physically inspect the cemetery in order to carry out this work.

We did not know how and what we would do eventually- but we all knew one thing- we all wanted to give back to the community. To give back to the library in manifold ways, in ways that cannot be quantified. Paraphrasing Seth Godin- the reason for the existence of donors/ volunteers and non-profits is that we don't know how to solve some problems in the world. Problems that are unprecedented -like the economic recession and what it did to our economy and then to our library. When we move to volunteer and fundraising for a cause, we take risks which don't make profitable sense. This risk basically pu...
