From the August 23rd Wilmington Star News.
Two public forums will be held today and tomorrow to discuss the planning process for the future of the fort according to the Fort Fisher State Historic Site public information officer, Si Lawrence.
The first one tonight at 6:30 pm, will be in the auditorium of the New Hanover County Arboretum. Tomorrow it will be at the police training room at the Carolina Beach Municipal Building at 6:30 pm.
Charles Page, the president of Cool Springs Center, will moderate the discussion.
I would like to see more of the fortification returned to its 1865 appearance like the Sheppard Battery. Plus, I would like to see the recreation of the Armstrong Gun placed on its carriage. I would also like to see a recreation of the Mound Battery near where its original location was.
