-Please support the Building Fund to the best of your ability, We have completed the reconstruction of the lintels and parapet in the Brown Street building and now need to do the roof which has been a constant source of serious problems for the past many years and can no longer be properly patched. A new roof will be needed and, it appears, that the cost will hover around $30,000. This is the time to donate to the Building Fund so we can do this work as the school in that building is the main source of our income and this is a project we must start in the very near future.
