Sardinia Historical Society fundraiser Aug. 12
The Sardinia Historical Society began as informal gatherings of those who had lived in the town for decades to share their stories among themselves and with others.
By 2014, it was organized with set meeting times, elected officers and a project: to repair and refurbish the vintage wrought-iron fence that graced the front of the Sardinia Village Cemetery.
With the help of fundraisers and donations, this project was completed in 2015. Now, many of the monuments in the cemetery are in need of repair. The society was able to have half the work completed in 2022.
In order to finish the project, the society will be fundraising at the Mt. Orab Kibler Lumber grill out on Saturday, Aug. 12 from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. The society thanks Kibler Lumber for this opportunity to raise funds and asks for your support in stopping by for lunch that day.
Should anyone wish to make a direct donation to the monument repair, checks may be sent to: Sardinia Historical Society Treasurer, 7557 Tri-County Hwy., Sardinia, Ohio 45171.
The society thanks everyone for supporting this fundraiser.
The society meets the first Monday of each month at 10 a.m. at the Sardinia United Methodist Church, 105 S. Main St., Sardinia. All are welcome.
