CONWAY — Demolition of the old Cranmore Base Lodge began Monday with the partial razing of the building that once housed administration offices upstairs and the Sport Thoma ski shop on the ground floor.
The old base lodge is being razed to make way for Cranmore’s new Fairbank Lodge, with a groundbreaking held March 16.
