The Fairhaven Historical Commission wishes to publicly thank the  Fairhaven Lions Club and their members for the thorough outside clean up they performed at the Old Stone Schoolhouse on North Street.  

The building is a single room schoolhouse built in 1828 is a popular  stop for Japanese visitors following the Manjuro Trail.  

The property was in need of some tree trimming, raking and mulch so  the Fairhaven Lions Club stepped up and volunteered to do an intense  clean-up of the property which included mulching the flower beds.  

We have limited funds to maintain these historic properties so when  someone steps up and offers to help for free, we graciously accepted  said Wayne Oliveira- Chairman of the Historical Commission that  oversees all of the historic properties in town including Fort Phoenix,  the Academy Building and the Old Firehouses just to name a few.  

The Fairhaven Lions Club is an international civic group serving the  community for over 75 years. To learn more about joining the Lions  Club here in Fairhaven contact President Bill Moniz at  lc1914bb@aol.com
