Greetings: The volunteers at the Oyster Bay Railroad Museum continue to toil away on our various projects each Saturday, making progress by leaps and bounds. This summer has been especially productive, having completed the bulk of our planned projects requiring semi-skilled labor. This progress however, has now left us with a unique problem. All of our weekly volunteers are very dedicated and are willing to step up to any task asked of them. Unfortunatly we have reached a point where much of the work needing to be done requires special skills or advanced knowledge. Specifically, we are in desperate need of volunteers who can assist us with such tasks as welding and metal fabrication, diesel mechanics and concrete/masonary work. We have much of the tools and equipment to do this work, and certainly we have no problem with obtaining materials that may be required, but we desperately need the skilled labor to get the jobs done. We have a couple of people who have been a great help to us, but the amount of work to be done coupled with other responsibilities these volunteers have far out weighs their availability. Please note that we are also soliciting bidders for some of this work to be done on the Ping Pong Coach in conjunction with a grant award. Specifically we are seeking professional contractors for welding / metal fabrication as well as professional paint removal / application. Bidders for this specific project must be licensed and insured contractors in order to be considered. Obviously all work will have to be done at our site. If you or someone you know is able to assist us with some of the aforementioned tasks, or is interested in bidding on the Ping Pong Coach work, please contact Steve Torborg at your earliest convenience. Thank you in advance and we look forward to hearing from you! Steve Torborg, Trustee Oyster Bay Railroad Museum LIRR35@aol 516-297-6232 PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SHARE OR REPOST AS DESIRED!
