Where You Live: The Mansion Mapping Project

The Mansion has set up several bulletin boards as part of our Mapping Project, where readers of the blog send brief descriptions (and sometimes, photos) of the towns and cities where they live.

The messages are coming from all over the country and the world, Julie and the Mansion staff collect them and posts them in the Mansion hallways. The bulletin boards are filling up, please keep them coming.

The residents love this project and check on the maps every day. They read the messages and look for the towns on the map.

Your messages are much appreciated. All you have to do it write a few paragraphs about your community, describing it briefly. You can mail or e-mail a photo if you wish.

You can send your descriptions of your town to the Mapping Project, The Mansion, 11 S. Union Avenue, Cambridge, N.Y, 12816 or you can e-mail Julie, the Mansion Activities director: she is julia@the cambridgemansion.com.

Thanks, this brings the wider world into the Mansion in a way that reminds the residents of the world out there and the fact that there are people who care about them. You have transformed the Mansion in so many profound ways Thanks.

  1. What fun! I see “my” push pin on my city – far on the Pacific Coast of California – this motivates me to send more. I’ve been fostering (and now adopting) a Mama kitty who had six kittens. Sadly, we said good-bye to Mama on Saturday with a telescoped bowel. Luckily – kittens were 5 plus weeks old and were already eating wet food with dishes of kitten milk replacer. All kittens have been spoken for with two staying here with my other 5 plus 2 border collies, one which “takes care of the babies”. She is gentle and while holding a toy in her mouth follows the actions of these precious little fur balls. You are helping me be more open and accepting of the daily gifts of life – thank you for that!!

    Warmly, Linda
