Despite a lack of cooperation from the weather this past Saturday, Building A Better Boyertown stayed with their Boyertown Heritage Day plan to challenge local would-be sleuths with a local mystery to solve.
Actors and volunteers helped make solving the "Ore-deal at Phoenix Mine" an interactive experience for the many participants who turned out to collect clues despite the rain.
For those who were unable to attend the event, BaBB invites you to read all about each location and how it ties to our story and the history of the mining industry right here in Boyertown.

WARNING ... SPOILER. If you don't want to know "who done it," skip this next sentence!
Now that the mystery has been solved, BaBB reveals that the murder was Daniel Leider, the bar owner.
