From the January 24, 2017, Fort Madison (Iowa) Daily democrat "Volunteers move earth at War of 1812 battlefield site" by Jeff Hunt.
Right now, volunteers are hauling asphalt, but eventually, the cost of the project is expected to be $500,000. This is the second phase of the North Lee County Historical Society's plan to restore Old Fort Madison.
Trucking firms have volunteered to remove the asphalt from the site. After that, a lot of dirt will be needed.
