For years we have worked on identifying how we can replace the deteriorated siding on the historic Legion building that is a community eyesore. Through much effort, construction is now underway to replace the siding, increase insulation on the building, replace several deteriorated wooden frame windows and upgrade the maintenance shed.

Through a generous gift of siding and paint from Lowe’s, Blue Peaks Roofing gave us an offer of $84,000 to side (with Hardie Board) and paint (two coats) the entire building. Thanks to a generous construction industry fundraiser led by Mike Abernathy and Soderburg Roofing, we had a tremendous head start on the needed funding. Our good fortunes continued, as the Krumme Family Fund pledged a $25,000 matching grant opportunity to help pay for this project. We now need to raise only $5,000 more to meet our obligation of this matching grant.

Please consider making a general contribution to the overall siding project.

Replacing the siding is critical to preserve our building’s structure into the Legion’s 2nd Century and to raise the stature of our Legion in the community.
