The volunteers approached the state for the transfer of six acres, including the Chapel in the Pines, which the Seabees themselves built in the 1960s. Several Quonset huts form part of the museum. They were first designed at Quonset Point and used extensively in several wars. There is a memorial grove where benches, stones and brass plaques commemorate those who have died.
