This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

In 2024 we received grant funds from MN Historical Society to prepare construction documents for needed tuckpointing and foundation repairs.

That grant request was not funded, but we plan to re-submit this request in the Summer of 2026 with hopes of completing needed repairs in 2027.
