Community:

We have some good news & bad news!

Good news: We are stretching our grant money as far as we can go! With kitchen, restroom, dining room & parlor being completed. Demo started at 8am this morning on the foyer, middle room and library. With that we will have completely restored the first floor of our museum/library with the grant. Which is much farther than we expected.
Bad news, We will remain closed probably until June 1st to insure everyone remains safe during this time of construction.
We do apologize for inconvenience..

If you have books to return you can drop them off in the pink box on the porch or hold them until we reopen.

Thank you & we look forward to seeing everyone soon!
