AmeriCorps NCCC team arrives to work on projects at Thollehaug Commons

Submitted by the Greater Sisseton Initiative

AmeriCorps NCCC team arrived Aug. 14, 2020 to work on multiple projects at the old middle school, also called the Thollehaug Commons. Because of uncertainty due to Covid-19, placement of a volunteer team to Sisseton came only in early July.

The eight member team will work on upgrading insulation and new roof membrane over the original building. The $22,500 grant from the Deadwood Fund/State Historic Preservation will help buy the building materials estimated at about $50,000. The Greater System Initiative, 501©(3), will be seeking donations from the community.
