The concept of a \u2018Pennsylvania lumber museum\u2019 started in the early 1960s with the Penn-York
\nLumberman\u2019s Club whose popular summer event brought awareness of the state\u2019s rich lumbering heritage to a national audience. It\u00a0 spawned a desire for a new \u201cheritage\u201d museum that
\nwould present this rich history to Pennsylvania residents and visitors. The Visitor Center offers an extensive history of the industry and region with exhibits such as\u00a0 \u201cChallenges and Choices in Pennsylvania\u2019s Forests,\u201d\u00a0 which explores the growth of Pennsylvania\u2019s lumber industry, the devastation and revival of the state\u2019s forests, and the current public
\nand private efforts to maintain a \u201cworking forest.\u201d<\/p>\n
