Help Preserve the beautiful Treasure
What the ZCBJ Hall is:
Built by Czechs in 1922 the hall is a treasure to our community and beyond. Dances, weddings, memorials, plays, acoustic music jams, dinners, etc. So many happy and precious encounters take place inside these walls. Local community non-profits hold fundraisers rent free from us. Exercise and dance classes are offered. The Czechs were a large group and very hardworking. The hall was well maintained by the Czech community until 1993 when the few remaining in the area ,became elderly. It is now cared for by a small group of trustees. The hall has been self sustaining all these years . Upgrades are sincerely needed to preserve and maintain this jewel for the next 100 years.
* Raise 150K: ~ includes unforeseen cost
*Rewire: (Imagine being able to run the microwave, coffee pot AND a crock pot at the same time!) The Hall was built in 1922. Scio got power in 1939. Wiring is knob and tube and not safe or adequate. We received 11,000 grant from Oregon Community Fund and 1000 from the Scio community and we got this accomplished! THANK YOU OCF and SCIO!
*Insulate and weatherize: The heat bill can top > 700.00 a month in the winter and when it’s < 28* outside, the hall doesn’t get warmer than 58* inside. It’s so drafty we can’t do an “envelope” test. We can't insulate unless hall is rewired.
*Add unisex Handicap restrooms; preserve the appearance of the hall: We have 2 RR with hall capacity of 299 people; neither are handicap.
*Kitchen Upgrade: If you’ve seen it you understand. This includes cracked floor
*Repair; Reroof; Paint: We have been quoted 87,000 to reroof. Leak by false front needs fixed , save $ by renting lift only once
*Fence remaining Creek edge:
*Have money in fund for unexpected repairs
*Bi-annual Revues (plays, music, inter views with Scio’s elders)
*Annual Czech dinner and dance
*Tax relief (achieved 2019) save now we'll save 2000.00 a year
