Our goal is to purchase and restore the DeAngelis Carousel, a vintage, park-style, menagerie carousel, custom designed and manufactured in 1924 by Spilllman Engineering in N.Tonawanda for Dominick DeAngelis. We propose to enclose the carousel to provide year 'round access. It will be powered by the sun and surrounded by an educational 'path' demonstrating the use of the sun to power the carousel.
The buffalo heritage carousel, inc., a non-profit corporation which owns, operates and maintains a fully restored 1924 spillman engineering corporation, solar-powered carousel that is the catalyst, demonstrating the use of renewable energy through play and hands-on experiences.
