Did you know?
You are an important part of our history, and our community! Did you know, that if you live in the Pennsylvania Furnace area, you are automatically a member of the Community Hall Association?
That's right!! The Baileyville Community Hall Association was established in 1933 and the By Laws state that “membership of this Association shall consist of every member of the community…” The Board of Directors meets the second Thursday of each month at 7:00 p.m. at the Community Hall. You are welcome to join us!
Little Free Library
A Little Free Library has been installed at the Community Hall. For those of you not familiar with the program, it provides books for people to share. The motto is Take a Book, Share a Book. If you have books you have read and would like to share, stop by and add them to the Library. Take a look at the ones already there and see if any interest you.
Even if you don't have one to share, take one to enjoy! We have stocked it with a good supply of children's and adult books already! Come check it out! Thanks to Tod Grimm, Genia Harpster and Lisa and Steve Bellows, for building, painting and installing the library. And to Michele Valenza for keeping the content rotated and in order.
