To help people visualize what life was like growing up in the cabin, Kitchen has created a small replica of the cabin complete with handmade cardboard furniture, wallpaper and curtains. "We are happy to donate the cabin and have it preserved for historical worth," Kitchen said. The DUP will host a dedication ceremony today at 6 p.m. at Highland Heritage' Park, 10400 N.
