Many thanks for the Robert E. and Genevieve G. Schaefer fund of The Columbus Foundation for the grant last year. We were able to cap 6 chimneys for 2 houses and the John Harris Dental Museum. This helps to keep water from damaging the chimneys and buildings. We were also able to replace the roof of the local history museum that was missed when the roof was replaced several years ago. This stopped water from leaking in to the museum. Thanks again.

The John Harris Dental Museum will be opening the first weekend in May. Some new displays will be added.

Many thanks to the Chillicothe-Ross Community Fund for the fall grant last year that enabled us to upgrade the exit lights and some wiring for the John Harris Dental Museum and add exit lights and wiring to the local history museum. This work was completed at the beginning of January.

Bainbridge finally built a sewage system for the first time. The museum was hooked up in October along with the 2 related rental houses. The funding for this was provided by the David Meade Massie Trust and the Chillicothe Ross County Foundation. Many thanks to them for their assistance as this could not have been accomplished otherwise.
