Visitors are invited to come and see an award-winning restoration site of an antique oil well later this week.
On Saturday (August 13), visitors are invited to come out to the Muddy Creek Oil Well on Park Road in Prospect. The site features a Bessemer Gas Engine and Marshall-Barr Number 19 oil well equipment that is restored and open for visitors to hear and see the industry that powered the region.
The well will operate from 11am until 4pm on Saturday. Visitors are reminded that the central powerhouse site is located beyond the State Parks Region 2 office, and signs will be displayed to direct visitors to the well’s location.
