September 1993:

LARGE SCALE RESTORATION BEGINS

Wilderstein’s tower was straightened, repaired, and repainted and the attic roof replaced. The work included the first new paint on the building since 1910 and reestablished Wilderstein’s original polychrome paint scheme.

By September 1994, the tower had been structurally secured, the top two levels of the tower were restored and repainted, and the flat portion of the mansion's roof was replaced in its entirety.

We recently had four very special visitors touring the Wilderstein Mansion. These gentlemen were visiting from Roosevelt Campobello International Park.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s parents, along with other wealthy families, summered at Campobello. As a young family man, FDR and Eleanor and their children spent July, August, and part of September on Campobello Island.

The Roosevelt’s magnificent summer home has been preserved. Today Roosevelt Campobello International Park is a combination indoor museum and outdoor nature park.

After a fabulous weekend of performances, we have much to be thankful for.

Thank you to everyone who attended “The Importance of Being Earnest,” written by Oscar Wilde. The performances were staged and performed by the very talented folks from The New Deal Creative Arts Center and directed by Tiffany McGehee.

All three performances were sold out, as well as the pre-show tours of the mansion.

We look forward to future collaborations with The New Deal Creative Arts Center.
