Fundraisers

Capitol Campaign:   Raising one million dollars to restore the Historic School is the goal of the Rainier Historical Society.   At present one of the main fund raisers is the pledge campaign.  If you have not pledged or donated to the fund yet, please give it some serious consideration.  Many of us donate to one or more worthy causes and what could be more worthy than a multi use building right here in Rainier?  It will be housing the Food Bank, Meeting Rooms, Library, Youth Center, Museum and many of the things the Rainier Communtiy could use.  Please consider the Historic School in your list of giving. Buy A Brick:  We are selling bricks.  If you receive the Rainier Historical Newsletter you will find an insert with information on the brick sale.  If not use the site contact page or call Rodney Mitchell 360 446-5385 for more information.  The bricks are selling and will be laid at the Historic School when restoration is complete.  We would like you to give us your idea for placement of the bricks.  Would you rather see a wall, a walkway or do you envision some other design.  Send us your ideas.
