IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Cultural and Natural Resource Restoration: 1. SSPF funded restoration and on-going maintenance projects at Vikingsholm. We have also established an endowment to help fund future projects. 2024 highlights included the completion of the restoration of the garage and lakeside entry doors; we worked with State Parks to forward the on-going projects of the turret restoration, roof repairs and lakeside site improvements to stop the degration of the landscape by the estimated 1.5 million visitors to this popular Emerald Bay beach. 2. We continued to support the maintenance and restoration needs of the Hellman-Ehrman Estate (Pine Lodge) to include the historic garden, repairs to exterior and interior plaster repair needs, siding and roof repairs and general upkeep.
