Thanks to the generosity of our members, our Mill Street building is getting a brand new paint job along with new stain on the porches, steps, and ramp. Roger's Painting is doing the work. Today was power washing day. Thanks to the LeRoy Community Association-Leroy, PA for allowing us to borrow some water. We're excited to have the building looking brand new again in time for LeRoy Old Home Day and America250!

Twenty-five years ago this week, on May 19, 2001, the first meeting of what would become the LeRoy Heritage Museum was held. Nine people who were interested in local history attended the meeting and discussed the possibility of starting a museum in LeRoy. The Open Hand Grange hall was for sale at the time and was on the verge of collapse due to the advanced stages of mold and powder post beetle infestation in the basement. This was to become our first museum, but little did we know that it would take us nine years to save the building and completely renovate it into a useful facility for local history preservation. Over our 25th anniversary year, we will share photos of that project. We begin with photos of the building's interior as we found it when we first considered purchasing it. Watch for more photos in the week's ahead!
