Preservation Progress

A BIG THANK YOU!

The Meeting House and its treasured Revere Foundry bell will be preserved for the future thanks to the Town of Truro and many generous donors.

The Friends of the Truro Meeting House marked the successful completion of its five-year preservation project with a Town-wide Celebration on Monday, July 3, 2017.

Begun in 2012 and completed during 2017, the project received major funding provided by the Town of Truro through its Community Preservation Act Program along with support from the Friends.

The July 3 event was our Big Thank You that included greetings from Senator Julian Cyr, Representative Sarah Peake, and Paul Wisotzky, Chair of the Truro Board of Selectmen. Te event featured the ringing of the bell, rousing music, and special awards followed by refreshments donated by Truro restaurants and shops for everyone’s enjoyment. However, our work is not over. Old buildings require on- going attention. In addition, our summer programs that continue to enrich the community and a viable house of worship rely on the Friends to make the building’s future secure.
