During the Fall of 2009, I took up the responsibility of researching the history of a Boalsburg, PA park known as the Stan Yoder Memorial Preserve. The project involved tracing the development of the parkas well as the history of the land beforehand. Going back to the 1700s, the project involved land record research as well as countless interviews with local residents. Written for Harris Township, I completed a 6 page history booklet that also documents the identity of Stan Yoder himself.
