Sherwood Historian Odge Gribble clings to the old staircase inside the Old School House. She and the rest of us were invited to tour the doomed building on Monday to see what we wanted saved for the replica that will replace it after it's been torn down. DOOMSDAY will be Tuesday Dec.4 3:00 to 4:00. That's when the bulldozers arrive. INSET: The Sherwood Historical Society's new lapel pin will remind policy makers of their vow to recreate the Sherwood classic. Let's all wear one and say it in unison: Old buildings might wear out, but... "If you can't save it, put it back!"

Odge was a student at this school. Imagine how would you feel if this was your school being torn down?
When the new building is up and the stage is in place, I want to sponsor the first program there!
Bulldozing Party!!! Tuesday Dec.4 3:00 to 4:00 p,m, in front of the Old Sherwood Schoolhouse. Wear your buttons proudly and be ready to rumble! Bring your friends and family. Show people we really mean it when we say: "PUT IT BACK!!!"
So what is happening now in June 2008 with the Old School House? are they still gonna put it back? I'm waiting.
