RAISE THE ROOF
A fundraising campaign to collect funds to keep our building safe.
We need to repair the roof and upgrade our electrical system!
Our “Raise the Roof" fund is now at $42,000 and we have raised enough to pay for the roof repairs. We have received a quote, and the Board will be deciding on the color of the tiles at the next Board meeting. Danco Roofing will begin the project soon. Thanks to all who have contributed to this phase of the fund-raising effort.
Please prayerfully consider contributing to our need. The next project will be upgrading the electrical system needed to cover the several renovations done in the last few years,
Our building is an important venue for many concerts and groups in Nelson.
