An article was published in June announcing the Gammon House Juneteenth festivities and the new “Green Project” sponsored by the City of Springfield. The article can be reviewed by clicking here.

Progress is being made in the construction of the Gammon Green area with pavers representing the quilt symbols and trail codes used during the Underground Railroad. For more information on the project you may view this video.

Dale Henry, past Gammon House board chairman commented, ” We’re really excited for this reinvestment and the good stewards helping with the entire project.”

Over the past few months, progress has been made in completing the paver section of the green, as shown by the below images.
