Hey all, I have got in touch with the Readymade Community Association and have the opportunity to get photos of the old 1913 school building interior before demolition. Anyone interested, please let me know and I'll see what date will be best for everyone.

Okay, so I have a tour of the building set for JUNE 23 @ 4pm so anyone who would like to come please post below. Cheers!

I'm going to hit the basement and see if I can find my family history book and see what it says about our connection to Readymade and area.

When is the school set for demolition? I'll have to try to make it out there this summer.

Good luck Dan! Cleaned the place out, but you might be able to find something like that in with the old collections they have safely stored on display in the new community hall. I was in there a few days ago and man! It's crazy that they are tearing it down. The lumber in there is amazing for its age.

I don't have an exact date for the burn but I am in contact with the Readymade Community Association so I should know when it happens.

Dan a couple friends and I will be taking a tour through the old building on June 23 around 4pm to get photos etc. of the place before demo. You are welcome to join in if you'd like?
