Update on the Mt Pleasant Church and School
August 10, 2009
Our last summer fundraiser, “Sadieville Musicfest” is drawing to an end. We anticipate to raise close to $1,500.00 for the restoration of the Church and School. The Friends of the Sadieville Renaissance, Inc. wishes to thank everyone for their hard work and support!
Friends of the Sadieville Renaissance, Inc. has been working hard to save the Mt Pleasant Baptist Church and Rosenwald School located on the same property. They have been working with the City Commission, Ky Heritage Council, Scott County Historians, Ky Historical Society, Architechtural Historian, The National Trust for Historic Preservation, Preservation Kentucky and an architect from Lexington, KY. It is a collaborative effort to save and restore the African American church that was built in the late 1800’s and the Rosenwald School that was built in the early 1900’s. If you are interested in helping save these important historical buildings, please call Cindy Foster at (502) 857-4576.
