Dear Facebook followers,
Being a preservationist has been the love of my life. Finding a strong reason why to preserve the Batcher Block Opera House was easy and a story for another day. Today the dream continues. The City of Staples, the Staples community and their collective history, sitting at tables as teammates, working towards a future with a respect for the past is why we moved the preservation of our BBOH this far. Passionate people from all over our State have contributed to our vision with talent and wisdom. To all of you, thank you. You are needed and wanted.
