The Kinsman Foundation Awards Friends of Santiam Pass Ski Lodge $20,000 for work on the siding repair of the lodge!

For the third year in a row, the Kinsman Foundation has awarded Friends of Santiam Pass Ski Lodge a generous grant for the restoration of the lodge. The $20,000 in grant funds will be specifically applied to the restoration of the lodge’s siding. With little maintenance the siding has endured over 30 years of harsh Santiam Pass weather. Most of it is cupped and cracked, and some is falling off. These funds will pay for the milling and installation of new siding over most of the lodge. The result will be a dramatic change to the exterior appearance. We are so very thankful for the consistent support of the Kinsman Foundation. Since its beginning historic preservation has been Kinsman’s principal funding area. The Foundation has helped us make regular progress on the restoration and for this we are so grateful!
