Cultural/ Historical Resources

Goal:  The cultural and historical resources of the Juniata watershed should be preserved to serve as living reminders of our industrial and cultural history.  Historical resources should be maintained in good condition in order to attract those from outside the region to vacation here.  Efforts to combine the attractions of both historical and recreational site should be continued in order to heighten educational value and tourist appeal.
