SHF Ends the Year on a High Note With Generous Grants and Donations Many thanks for the significant individual donations, membership renewals and lifetime memberships received by the Foundation at the end of 2011. These donations helped end the Foundation's year on a very positive note. Every donation brings this project closer to the finish line!
Stayton Cooperative Telephone Company, NORPAC Foods, The Kinsman Foundation and Pacific Power Foundation have again contributed much needed funding to the Brown House Restoration Project. Community volunteers and supporters of Santiam Heritage Foundation continue to make significant progress restoring and adapting the National Historic Register landmark for community uses. Work parties were held during the summer and autumn during which stalwart volunteers removed wallpaper and the yard was spiffed up with weeding, planting of small shrubs in front of the house, and bark dust. The original south porch stairs are currently being replicated and now that the house has a new furnace, inside work can continue this winter more comfortably. Most recently, some of the plumbing was upgraded. Planning Begins for the Kitchen Lots of work and expense are left to prepare the house for eventual community uses. Especially daunting financially is the need to build a modern warming kitchen. A committee, advised by a noted local architectural drafts person is working to plan this part of the modern adaptation of the house that complies with health and safety codes while maintaining the historic character of the house.
