Carraway Dedication Stone
A civic monument installed by the Commission at the dedication of Carraway Dam in 1951.
The Carraway Dedication Stone was installed in Mill Hollow at the formal dedication of Carraway Dam. It bears the motto of the Appalachian Energy & Mine Commission in raised lettering:
“Power for the home, work for the hand, safety for the man underground.”
The stone was placed at a public access point in the town where it would be visible to residents and visitors, and it remained a recognized civic landmark through the Commission’s operational period. It still stands.
