Camp Naco to receive needed restoration thanks to grant funding. Over the last three months the project has been given two grants for the efforts.
NACO, Ariz. — Over the past three months the City of Bisbee has received two grants, for a total of $8.1 million, to support the Naco Heritage Alliance.
The Alliance is working on the rehabilitation and enhancement of the structures and education of Camp Naco. This project is important to the community and the region because of this connection to the Buffalo Soldiers, the preservation of history to the local residents and to provide needed event space for the locals.
One of the 23 buildings will be turned into a library and meeting space. Orozco said that when they had community meetings the locals wanted those two things, so in an effort to serve the community they are honoring their request. She added, the plan for the buildings that have already fallen down is to have that be the backdrop of a stage for plays and other events.
