The funds raised for this worthwhile profit will be used to convert an existing building into a facility of our needs. The funds will allow us to rent a space and convert it into our dream. Our Hall Fame is outgrowing the area where it currently housed; and, sadly, many of our donated artifacts are stored in a warehouse simply because we do not have the space for them to be displayed.
