New
Book - County Normal School, Standish
The ACHS is gathering pictures and other information about the County
Normal School that was in Standish from 1905 - 1957. This will all be put in our next book
that we are now working on. If anyone has any of the graduating class pictures, or other
information, please contact us. Thanks.
"Million Pennies
Drive" - Update
 Our goal is to collect one million pennies.
That will give us $10,000 to pay on the mortgage for our building.
As of January 1st, we have $8,700.00 in our "Million Penny Account". This
means we now need only 130,000 more pennies. We still have some canisters around the
county, and you can also give your pennies to any ACHS member. And a big Thanks to all who
have helped us get this far with our Million penny project.
