The Station building sustained significant damage due to a direct hit from a tornado associated with Hurricane Milton on October 9, 2024. Palmetto Cottage was completely destroyed, and both Rosemary Cottage, the dining room, and a section of the main building above the office suffered damage. The facility team is currently assessing the full extent of the impact.
Initial reports from Buck Island Ranch show there is no obvious damage and all Archbold staff are safe.
They report, "On a positive note power has been maintained, and despite the setbacks, we are thankful our preparedness measures effectively ensured everyone's on-site safety. Our efforts now turn to a thorough assessment and the necessary repairs."
