Details from event's RunSignUp.com listing:CANCELLED: Third Annual Republic Town Hall Trot
About the Town Hall
The Scipio Republic Area Historical Society, along with Reviving Republic, is actively raising money towards restoration of the Republic Town Hall. The Town Hall was built in 1886, 133 years ago. It was, for many years, a center of activity in the community, hosting dinners and holiday dances. It served as the site of Republic High School graduation ceremonies in the early 1900s, and as the school for the years of 1914-1915, while a new school building was being built.
The Town Hall was also the site of the mass funeral after the horrible Baltimore & Ohio train wreck of 1887. For many years, through the 1950s, many remember attending traveling shows that performed at the Town Hall.The last time work was done to refurbish the Town Hall was in 1976, when the Republic area community came together to help in honor of the Bicentennial. It's time to restore this former gem back to its rightful place in the center of our community!!
Since the First Annual Town Hall Trot, the Historical Society was able to pay for a structural engineer to inspect the state of the building to guide our first steps towards restoration. The engineer deemed the building in good shape with a sound foundation, meaning restoration efforts are safe to continue.
If you have any questions about our efforts, or to become a sponsor, please contact the Scipio Republic Area Historical Society at scipiorepublichistory@gmail.com.

For the love of all that is good and moisture wicking...
