Mission

Mascoma Valley Preservation saves historic places to promote the vitality of our rural communities.

  • Mascoma Valley Preservation (MVP) welcomed new members to the all volunteer board and board of advisors, adding valued expertise to our group. MVP's Grafton Center Meetinghouse also saw significant improvements. After acquiring the building in 2019, the building has undergone immense work to repair the damages left by a catastrophic fire in 2016. This year, the exterior envelope of the building was completed, closing out phase two of our project. We celebrated the completion of this chapter and commenced the new chapter with an open house. Donors, board members, contractors, and more signed a board that will be installed in the walls of the meetinghouse, honoring the work of so many people that helped save this historic site, and to perhaps be discovered in another 200 years. At MVP's Kimball Property, the 175-acre property also saw changes during this fiscal year. As MVP broke ground on the Kimball house, completed necessary selective demolition and prepared the building to be lifted for a new foundation to be poured. The interior of the three buildings have been emptied of old debris, historical artifacts were saved, and hazardous materials around the property were disposed of. The historic home will serve as an affordable house rental, while the barn and mill building will serve as a space for an emerging business. MVP completed extensive property maintenance at the 1905 Cheever Chapel, an historic property acquired in 2021.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
