Friends of Twin Lakes were able to again lease the Twin Lakes school house from Lake County School district.  Then came the rehabilitation of this historic school house.

FoTL volunteers engaged in a lot of clean-up and rehabilitation work on the building, hosting multiple fire mitigation and clean-up days along with construction and painting work days. 

The historic School House had rotten boards needing replacing before painting.

The redoing of the floor was a major undertaking.  It needed sizing and cutting.

 Friends of Twin Lakes were able to rededicate the building on August 13, 2017 with a grand community picnic.

The Twin Lakes School House now renovated and ready for use by the community.

The Lake County School Board approved our Project to allow private event usage. Usage is subject to the terms and conditions outlined in the Schoolhouse-Use-Agreement. If interested please view the agreement.
