School Project

                                                  

        
These are very recent pics ,SEP 2003 of the old school replica built on the site of the original school. It sits on property now owned by the Austin and Area Leisure Club. 
John Seaman spent a lot of hours making this replica.  Sadly, it has come into disrepair, not so much from the ravages of time but from human indignities and atrocities.  The material necessary to fix this monument to our past has been collected and now it needs an individual or group of people who would like to take on the repair project.  With three of four sets of hands in would not take that long.  2005 is the 100th anniversary of the building of the school.
 
Rent one of these grills for your special occasion.
