Hear the story of John Buechner – known as Egg Harbor’s “Man of Stone” – during an Egg Harbor Historical Society program Aug. 16, 7 pm, at the Kress Pavilion, 7845 Church St. in Egg Harbor.

Buechner left his mark through his skills as a master stonemason after working on the Door County Historical Museum, on the Mill Supper Club, throughout Baileys Harbor and on stone structures on Rock Island, among other projects.
