Although it is unlikely that there would be an effort to try to save the entire home, rescue of those beams would allow them to be used in other construction at Frostville. 8) The Cultural Activities Commission is working with the North Olmsted Kiwanis Club to organize atwo-day art show this August to be held at Frostville. 9) Fire Station No. 2.
