ALBANY - At the recent annual meeting of the board of directors of the Gap Church Museum Inc. and Cemetery Association, the board decided on three fundraisers to help cover the costs of repairs needed.
The eighth annual rummage sale will be from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. June 17. It will be held inside the community hall so rain will not be a factor. Donated items will be accepted and are tax deductible. Some restrictions will apply; no electronics or clothing will be accepted.
Pick-up of items can be arranged. An open house will be held in conjunction with the event.
The fourth annual Gap Church Bash will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. July 15 at the church. Activities will include a vendor show, crafts, food tent and a cemetery walk.
The annual Gap Church Museum Inc. hymn sing and open house will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. Aug. 20.
Some of the documents available for viewing at the open house will be copies of the original membership list from 1850 to 1969; church records beginning at 1850; and minutes of the Soldiers Aid Society that began in 1862. Information about the cemetery also will be available. Refreshments will be served.
The church and cemetery are located 4 miles west of Albany on Wisconsin 59.
