The Marble
Valley Friends organization was formed in
May of 1997 in response to the announced
plans to demolish the wood framed Old Tate
School Gymnasium, which pre-dates
the historic marble school building.
Although the preservation of the
the Old Gym was and remains a top priority
of the now incorporated all volunteer group,
a much broader view of the purposes of the
organization has been incorporated into its
stated mission.
-
To
promote public interest in the history of the Marble
Valley area and its marble industry.
-
To
initiate, coordinate or operate programs to
preserve, enhance, and utilize structures and site's
of historic interest.
-
To
encourage and support public and private efforts to
maintain buildings and sites in ways that will
retain their historic importance.
-
To
develop and implement educational programs to inform
citizens and visitors of the historic development of
the Marble Valley.
-
To
advise and recommend to community, municipal,
county, and state agencies or departments, programs
to achieve the above purposes.
