A few years ago the old school was torn down and local furniture maker, Kenny Clark helped with the demolition and was able to carefully preserve some of the old yellow pine floor joists. Clark, a third generation furniture maker, is pictured with a jelly cupboard he made using re-claimed wood from the old school.  Clark has donated the cupboard to the Halifax County Heritage Festival Committee to be given away.  Raffle tickets are now on sale and available from committee members.  A drawing will be held Saturday, May 4, 2013 at the Heritage Festival.
