Bids sought for new VFW roof

Home to various activities throughout the year — birthday celebrations, wedding receptions, fundraisers, reunions and dinners, to name a few — the VFW Post No. 2281 is something on an unofficial community building.

The building, built in 1958, is in need of a new roof and other repairs and updates. With the help of the community, in April and auction event brought in some necessary funding to get those repairs started.

Jeff Strong noted the roof is 18-20 years old, and they are still trying to get bids in for the work. After the roof is done, he said, they’ll see what they can do with any leftover money.

He noted the money will likely go to lighting and interior work.

People can support the VFW by attending the dinners hosted there, and Strong said donations are welcome at the building at any time.
