Fresh Paint at Fayette Historic Townsite


What a wonderful opportunity for the tourists and campers over the Labor Day weekend.  Building #3, directly across from the Superintendent's home, was completed just in time for the Labor Day break.  In the first photo you see Friends of Fayette Historic Townsite donation dollars at work.  The exterior is painted in historically correct colors.  Inside you will find educational displays about the building.  Come visit Fayette and learn more about this 19th century townsite.  Enjoy the outdoors and the beautiful scenery.


                                                 Everybody enjoys a "before" and "after" picture and in the second photo is the "after" picture.  Hopefully the fresh paint will preserve this building for another decade.  There are many buildings at Fayette that need help.  Your donation dollars make this type of preservation possible.  The Friends of Fayette Historic Townsite, a 501 (c) (3) non profit, would like to thank all donors who have given support over the years.  A special thanks to Brenn Kurth Contracting for his expertise and quality work on these very old buildings.
