Dear Friends --

Please attend the Ribbon Cutting & Grand Opening of the Edward Frisbee
Center for Collections & Research at Historic Cherry Hill.

At the event, Cherry Hill will reveal attic heirlooms to the public and
honor the Frisbee family, elected officials and others who made the center
possible. The event will include remarks by Historic Cherry Hill’s
President, Frisbee family members, elected officials and special guests.

This state-of-the-art center was constructed to eliminate the weight of
storage loads from Cherry Hill’s wood-frame 1787 historic structure, and to
preserve the museum’s diverse collections of 20,000 objects, 30,000
manuscripts, 7,500 textiles, 5,000 books, and 3,000 photographs.

Many collections have been moved to the climate-controlled facility and the
museum has raised more than $525,000 of the total $625,000 project cost.

Cherry Hill will offer a sneak preview of attic treasures, behind-the-scenes
tours of the Frisbee Center, and free house tours throughout the afternoon.

When:   October 1, 2003 at 11:00 a.m. -- the press is encouraged to attend.

Where:  The Edward Frisbee Center, Cherry Hill Street, Albany, New York.
Historic Cherry Hill is located at 523 ½ South Pearl Street in Albany, New
York, just off of Interstate 787, Exit 2.  The Edward Frisbee Center is
located behind the museum on Cherry Hill Street. From Cherry Hill turn
right, turn right up McCarty Avenue, and right onto Cherry Hill Street.  The
center is on the right side of the street.

Please call Historic Cherry Hill at 518-434-4791 to RSVP or for more
information.
