At 2:00 PM on Wednesday, April 14, 2010, Dr. John Richard, Superintendent Perry Schools, Barry Mason, Business Manager of Perry Schools, Bob Schnabel, VP of Perry School Board met with Chuck Taylor, President of Perry History Club, and Steve Toohey, 2nd VP and Stan Krawson, Secretary, to receive control of the old Genoa one room schoolhouse.
The History Club is dedicated to restoring the 117 year old building. They have raised over $7,000 since their beginning in April 2007. The basic building is structurally sound but as the pictures indicate, much work needs to be done. They hope the citizens and businesses of the Township will get behind the the project with their time, talent and money to help preserve this piece of history.
