Stone School will be 150 years old in 2012 and while the restoration won’t be finished, the committee is hoping to an ice cream social next summer to show how much progress has been made.
Cost of total restoration still is estimated to be $30,000 and Sturges said money is being raised slowly but surely. The committee recently received $1,000 from the Lions Club and another $1,000 from the Boone County Historical Society. The dumpster in front of the school, filled to the brim with debris taken out of the building, was donated by Marengo Disposal.
