We, The West Suffield Village Improvement Association, owners and operators of West Suffield Academy Hall, are asking for your help. Twenty-five years ago, we started our adventure of renovation and opening the hall for public gatherings. Except for major projects, we do all the work with a small group of volunteers. We are very proud of our building and many lovely events have been held here.
At this point we are at another juncture on our road to save the building and keep it active. Our bookings for events are not enough to pay for yearly expenses. We have tried a variety of options, but our bottom line is not healthy. We have worked hard and think this old school building is an amazing place.
So now we are looking for new ideas from you, association members or not. Will you please let us know if you have possible solutions/suggestions for use of this building. We will consider any input that we receive. Maybe another non-profit group would like to share this space with us, or an organization needs space for events on a regular basis. The sale of the building is not out of the question.
If you have any questions or answers, please contact me at: 860 668-2920.
