Painting Project Continues

On June 7, a number of volunteers turned out at the Little Red Schoolhouse to continue the painting of the building’s new siding. Two additional sides were completed by the group, including striping of the stairs and repainting of the baseboards. Once the job is finished, the building will require only seasonal touchups to maintain it through the coming years. Work remains to be done on replacement of the wood at the base of the pillars and some of the porch structure.
