Can’t find the perfect gift for someone who has everything? Or need a way to honor someone you love or remember your loved one on his/her birthday? You could remember them with a donation to purchase a window for the education building. The session has approved to replace all of the windows in the education building before cold weather hits again. The windows are not energy efficient and drafty to say the least. The quote received is $325 per window. With your donation, we will put your loved ones name on a plaque remembering them and send notification to the individual or family. If you would like to donate to the window fund please mark your donation, Window Fund. Also, provide the information to be placed on the plaque.
