    • From the historical scoiety:  As many know, the Historical Society is launching a campaign to Rescue, Restore, and Renovate the historic Jackson Town Hall. The December flooding event went under the building and knocked out the furnace. The bank along the Town Hall is eroding. The foundation is unstable. In order to save the building for the long term, and with support from the Jackson Selectboard, the Society intends to move it down near the skating rink next spring.
    • The Society will be launching a public capital campaign. Our capital campaign goal is $925,000. With the help of some very generous donors, we have raised almost one-third of this amount. We have applied for grants from LCHIP and the Ham Charitable Foundation and will apply for others. Raising this amount by a small, volunteer-run organization is a daunting task.
    • Please come to our informational session to learn more about this project and how you can help.
