Of the two dozen people who attended the first volunteer cleanup day at the Lincoln Theatre, more than half were members of the Bessemer Historic Society (BHS). Established in 1995, the BHS is dedicated to promoting and preserving the historic residences and neighborhoods of Bessemer. Other Marvel City residents also showed up and helped out: TKTK, of Standard Furniture, provided a Bob Sykes BBQ lunch for the volunteers.
Check out some of the great photos taken that day.
