My Old School - Woonsocket High School Documentary

Approximately one year ago a project began to preserve the memory of the old Woonsocket high school.  Jason Allard and Scott Gabrielson have dedicated themselves to this project for the city they call home.  This great tribute has been immensely successful thus far.  Nevertheless, an independent, two-man team can only do so much on their own.  After countless hours spent compiling the history of the school, Jason and Scott are on the home stretch of the project.  Thus far they have donated their time and resources and are seeking help to defray the cost of distributing and premiering the film. Below is a link to the project's kickstarter where pledges can be made.  As a token of appreciation, each pledge amount correlates to a themed item linked to the documentary (One of which is an exclusive chance to tour the abandoned school). 

As a member of this city, I feel projects such as this should be held in high regard.  Times are tough, however this documentary is something our city can be proud of. Anyone who takes the time to read more about the film will immediately see its worth. Thank you for taking the time to be a part of something great.
