Inscription.
The first gathering at the Sidney Grove Campmeeting area was held in 1874.

This bell, created by the Goulds Manufacturing Company in Seneca Falls, NY, called visitors to meals and to worship.

In the mid 1940's the services moved to Sky Lake in Windsor and the property was sold. The bell ended up in private hands and was later donated to the Sidney Historical Association.
