Hazel Drew photo from old newspaperbook cover of Murder at Teal's PondOn Sunday, October 6, 2024, the Sand Lake Historical Society dedicated the town’s first "Legends & Lore" roadside historical marker, commemorating the July 1908 death of Hazel Drew and the continued "presence" of her in the Taborton area.

Special thanks to the William G. Pomeroy Foundation for a grant to fund the marker, Town Historian Bob Moore, and the Highway Department (for setting the pole).

The dedication was followed by a reception at Sand Lake Center for the Arts and a book talk by Mark Bushman, author of Murder at Teal's Pond: Hazel Drew and the Mystery That Inspired Twin Peaks.
