The country school in Helga Township where Wayne Hoff attended first and second grade, left an imprint on his heart. A constant element in tales of generations of family stories, the Nary School was more than a structure in which to be educated, it was part of family lore, part of the history of rural experience.
Closed in the 1970s, Nary School remained empty for nearly 50 years. Plans to tear down the school began floating around, and Hoff wondered what could be done about its fate. To date, more than $600,000 have been secured for renovations. The building and adjoining Heritage Park are now home event spaces, classrooms, a theater, a hockey rink, and a revival of activities, idea sharing, and inspiration on the campus.
