Corning's veterans will soon have a new roof over their heads. One that doesn't leak.
Work on a new roof for the Corning Veterans Memorial Hall located at 1620 Solano St. began Sept. 30 and is expected to be completed by Friday.
Water leaked into the hall during severe storms in the winter of 1995, demonstrating a new roof was badly needed."
"Everybody is really relieved and just thankful. They were so worried...about having a real bad rain." said Wanda Wiseman, clerk of the Veterans Memorial Hall house committee.
