Show Notes
A piece of Charlotte's past is set to open this weekend at the Charlotte Museum of History.
The Siloam School, which has been standing since the 1920s, has been restored after an eight-year effort to raise $1.2 million for its preservation.
The "Save Siloam School" project was funded entirely by the community and was relocated to the Charlotte Museum of History in September 2023. The school sat abandoned in the Mallard Creek area for many years and the museum intended to save it and restore it for educational purposes.
