Does Sandpoint want a carousel, too?
SANDPOINT — After 64 years in hibernation, 36 horses will finally be free of their stable when a time capsule reveals what is believed to be a 1920 Allan Herschell Carousel next Saturday. Project coordinator Jan Griffitts said although the carousel needs restoration work, all the pieces are there, including the 36 hand-carved wooden horses, rounding boards and original artwork. “When they put it in the truck they took the paint off of all but two of (the horses), because the paint was not real good, so we have a couple that at least have some color but the rest have to be repainted,” Griffitts said/ Mary Malone , Bonner County Bee.
