We are getting a NEW Roof!
Our Bluehill Academy Building's roof was last shingled 30 years ago. Built in 1833 - 186 years ago - it will need additional work after the roof is complete.  

Our GOAL was - $58,000
Fundraising ideas for schools, churches, and youth sports teamsThermometer
We are replacing the roof shingles and addressing related woodwork with the amount currently raised and adding building funds to complete that effort. The 1833 building (she's 185 years old) has much more work that is needed and only your help will get us there.
​Remember - this is just the Roof.
She is part of the Town's History.
