Twin Maples

Did you know that Twin Maples got its name from two maple trees that are no longer on the property? 🌳🌳

This young Eagle Scout is hoping to plant 2 new maple trees at Twin Maples! 😁🦅👍

Please consider donating to The Fortnightly Club's fund to restore Twin Maples' namesake and beautify the landscape of this lovely historic landmark. THANK YOU! 😍
