</span></strong>by Jessica Gabriel, Compliance Specialist for the State Historic Preservation Office<br>
May is a big deal to our office as it marks the “awareness month” celebration of all things related to historic preservation. For thirty-one whole days!
<a href="https://savingplaces.org/stories/preservation-month-2023">Preservation Month 2023</a>, like any year, allows us to advocate for historic preservation, bring local and national preservation issues into the limelight, and celebrate all our successes
with an eye towards the future. Preservation Month, however, shares May with many other causes, groups, and movements that deserve recognition. In addition to Preservation Month, May is also Mental Health Awareness Month, Asian American & Pacific Islander
Heritage Month, and Jewish American Heritage Month to name just a few. Those of us who work in historic preservation are quick to see how these issues overlap and, from a compliance perspective, how the work we do at the Oregon SHPO relates to each. Read on
to learn about the unique intersections of preservation, awareness, and celebration.

<p><b>Playing games with preservation</b>. by Inga Williams, Associate Planner with Benton County Community Development Department<br>
In early April, the Benton County Historic Resources Commission (HRC) was informed by the National Trust for Historic Preservation that they had been awarded a National Trust Preservation Fund grant of $5,000. The commission had submitted the grant application
to support a Historic Preservation Month education project, Spectres of Benton County Past Mystery History Game
<a href="https://spectrespast.com/">https://spectrespast.com/</a>. The game is in its third season and began as a way to celebrate Historic Preservation Month during the Covid shutdown.

and nomenclature of sash and casement windows. Learn about the evolution of historic designs and construction methods. Review endemic problems that lead to deterioration. Explore possible maintenance and repair techniques to extend sustainable service life.
Consider the benefits for retaining, rather than replacing, historic wood windows.<o:p></o:p></p>

Southern Oregon’s 19th Century social, governmental, and commercial hub. They learn how gambling money built a church; how the Civil War ended a successful mercantile partnership; how a saloon housed the county’s first museum; how fire reshaped the town;
