This grant has included linking the Gifford Dock and Hosie Schumann Park as part of the Tour Through Time. Signage will be designed to tell the story of these two sites, and their impact on the Gifford Community, both past and present. Similar to the signs created for the DHR funded Jungle Trail grant in 2018, this grant will include a sign at each site that shows the location of the five sites, and links their history. The Jungle Trail signage has received much positive response from the community, mostly relaying that they "were not aware of all of the sites listed, and the history of those sites." We expect a similar positive public response for this Gifford signs that will link each of the five sites. A copy of the Jungle Trail signage has been included with this application, for reference. The grant also will include production of brochures, providing the public a "take away" element to share with others, especially targeted as a resource for teachers in the area to incorporate into their lesson plans. A video will be prepared that showcases the knowledge and experiences of community leaders, our County historian, and other notable people. A copy of the video will be provided to the Gifford Youth Achievement Center, to the local schools, and to the Historical Society for use in their programming. The video will be available through a link on the County's website, and as a QR code on prepared signage. All work will be completed within the grant period using the funds requested and the required match. 3.
