Established as The Skamokawa Eagle in 1891
A Go Fund Me Account has been established by the Friends of Skamokawa for the River Life Interpretive Center at Central School/Redmen Hall in Skamokawa.
First established in 1894 as a two-story schoolhouse, it served as a school from 1894-1927 and then as a lodge for the Order of the Redmen until the 1950s. It was refurbished in 1985 by civic-minded residents who formed the non-profit organization called “Friends of Skamokawa.’’ Since 1986 it has been home to the “River Life Interpretive Center” with a mission to house historical archives and reflect river life and culture through historical panel displays and exhibits. Central School House is a 30‘x50’ building.
The Friends of Skamokawa hope to raise $16,000 for a new coat of paint provided by Roxi’s Painting of Longview.
