First Scoop

“First Scoop” dug as new Museum building project begins: At 8:37am on Tuesday, Sept 17^th, workers and equipment from local contractor William H Wright break ground on the first piece of the 72’ by 72’ footer for the new Museum building at Deltaville Maritime Museum and Holly Point Nature Park in Deltaville, VA.

The excavation marks a major milestone as the Museum rebuilds from the devastating fire of July 2012. Project projections are to have at least part of the Museum building online for the 2014 season.(photo by Bill Powell)
