#Raise the Roof #GTMD2022

Lake of the Woods County Historical Society was founded in 1965 and our museum was built in 1978. In 1989 and 2014 additions were built on to the museum. For the last few years, however, the roof has been leaking - each year we find new leaks. As such, we are needing to replace the roof. 

This is a large expense for a small non-profit so we are asking for your help. The total cost of the roof replacement is just over $94,000. 

In the last few years we have been working towards revamping our exhibit space. After three successful phases, largely grant funded, we just have the last step to complete - construction and implementation. In order to not have the new displays ruined, we know we need to have the roof replacement completed first. Our goal is to have the roof replaced in the summer of 2023.

As a repository for the county's history, Lake of the Woods County Historical Society is a place where people can remember their past and teach younger generations about the history of this great county. We hope you can help us reach our goal!
