Progress Ongoing at West Gaines School Community Center

Efforts are ongoing at the West Gaines School Community Center, where construction crews are actively engaged in demolishing sections that have suffered damage. In addition to this critical work, they are also in the process of installing a new roof, which is essential for the building’s preservation. The board responsible for the restoration of the historic West Gaines Colored School has issued a reminder to the community regarding the necessity for further financial contributions. These funds are vital to ensure the complete restoration of this significant landmark. For those who wish to support the project, donations can be made at First Farmers and Merchants Bank located in Lawrenceburg, where contributions can be directed to the West Gaines School Community Center fund.
