Vou gave, and now you want to know what's going on. You've been asked for money, but you wanted to see something hap pening before you gave. Or, you have a skill, some time, or materials to give ... This report is all for you. Sandy Johnston, an experienced restorer and a knowledgeable elec trician/plumber sheetrocker/ painter is at work. Now, Sandy would be the first to claim that she is not licensed or trained in these occupations. She has acquired skills by renovating old houses. She loves saving old buildings. She admires the work of craftsmen done long ago, recognizes the value in old buildings. She is very exacting about her work, and the Depot Restoration Foundation is very fortunate that she is over seeing this project. Changes in the appearance of the building's exterior have taken a great deal of time, and none of this is visible to the casual observer. In order to maintain the historical in tegrity of the building, certain methods of renewing the ap pearance must carefully adhere to guidelines of state and national registries. Sandblasting is absolutely for bidden for old brick. Preserva tionists know that a surface of brick is blasted away in that pro f fftf which leaves Lb* -brick more i porous and vulnerable to more rapid deterioration. Several methods of chemical paint strip ping are being studied. This will be an expensive process. There is not enough money on hand to do it yet. . Sandy has gotten estimates from several roofing contractors. The work on the roof must be done before any finish work can be done inside. Long before finish work is all the dirty tearing out and clearning. Community service sentences by judges have provided some labor for this cleaning phase. There has been help for clearing out interior framing and carpet. There has been help for scraping windows, shoveling, and sweeping. Sandy needed help for removing a small room inside and some shelving. She now has that done with the help of some friends. She has compiled a list of needed materials and categories of labor. She is spending a great deal of time talking to contractors who might bid on the work. Members of the committee have or will be at work on these phases: --Clyde Upchurch has arranged with Boren Clay Products for a donation of 7,000 bricks to be built into a protective wall on the railroad-side of the depot. He has also asked Hoke Concrete to donate concrete for footings and floors. -Don Burrows has donated his time as an elcrttiriaa* ? rj ? t y -Steve Parker Is fo arrange tbr the donation of some paint. -Harold Gillis is investigating! the possibilities of high school vocational-training masons for the brick laying. 5 -Bill Archer is to help arrange removal of old, uneven concrete' floors. While all this is going on, com-, mittee members will continue to. look for donations of money. Donations of lumber, lighting fix- | tures, sheetrock, sheetrock mud, styrofoam insulation, a mantle are also being solicited. Later there will be a call for volunteer workers. The $30,000 estimate for this project includes donated time by skilled community volunteers. (If you are pretty good at painting or driving nails on Saturdays, you qualify). Raeford/Hoke Depot restora- | tion Foundation committee members, in addition to those already mentioned, are: Bobby Gibson, Chairman, Mary Archie McNeill, Jimmy Wood, Bill Ar cher, Sarah Leach, Charlotta Howell, Bobby Conoly, Emmie Huff, and Warren Johnston. Beverly Pasternak, Executive, Secretary of the Chamber of Com-; merce, is serving a very important,' | role in keeping the members; abreast of the constant developments.
