How to Write an Imaginative Narrative for Kids -Episode 5: Events- an indication of events to come in a narrativeWe're Social
Where I saw a home with a lilting narrztive porch, rusted roof, sagging pillars, and a stucco exterior that seemed to be peeling away more each day, she saw only click beautiful. I did not have to dig deep to find out that this home was a telegraph station office that was part of the Washington Alaska Military Telegraph and Cable System.
Govt by the Ballaine brothers, prominent founders of Seward itself.
Though the house is well known to local historians, very few local people paid attention to it, with very little indication of its former prominence given its appearance and the toll of the years, weather, and time. Where will we get the funding, the time, the expertise to complete this project? Enter KMTA and their grant program.
Their grant program gave us the boost that eventually enabled us to pursue additional funding and grants from the State Historic Preservation Office via NPS Grants. Our KMTA inspired signage now sits proudly in our front yard, a testament to their support of the vibrant, historically important Turnagain Arm corridor.
Like KMTA, we seek to preserve the past for the future. The renovation is ongoing, and the beauty of this historic home continues to emerge, ready to share its story for future decades. This sign and this project motivated me to join the Seward Historic Preservation Commission. Recently, the commission applied for and received a CLG grant to create a Seward walking tour that will connect sites of interest through interpretive signs. Due to the hard work and passion of fellow commissioners, both locals and visitors will soon be able to follow a walking tour that will likely stoke their interest in Seward, and hence their interest in Turnagain arm for decades to come.
The walking tour will debut in early July, encompassing 30 plus properties. It will focus predominantly on the historic downtown area, with 25 or more points of interest that will feature a permanent narrative sign. In the summer ofa submarine cable was laid between Valdez and Seward, which connected the new town with Seattle and the rest of the United States.
