Silver City gets down to business in the Schoolhouse

It was home, sweet home Tuesday as the Silver City Advisory Council held its first meeting in the new Schoolhouse community center.

After thanking those who participated in the rebirth of the building that burned on July 7, 2004, board chairman Erich Obermayr and the town got down to business, picking May 17 for the grand opening party.

Prints and photos were donated to the building and there was discussion about where the library should go.

Lyon County Commissioner Bob Milz was on hand and told the group they were responsible for the center finally being opened.

"Who made this possible was you folks," he said. "Without you pushing it forward, it would not have happened."
