Save Commerce City’s oldest home

The Commerce City Historical Society is hosting a fundraiser Wednesday at 4 p.m. to buy and restore the historic Bakke house. It’s the city’s oldest house, built in 1892, and the Bakke Preservation Project aims to make sure the vintage structure at 6140 Holly St. in Commerce City gets the respect it deserves well into the future. Tickets are now on sale.

The historical society gave details in a recent blog post:

This is the largest undertaking by the Historical Society yet! We are raising money to purchase, preserve and transform the property back to its glory days. We want community input and involvement! Be a part of this fundraising launch. Your support will help us raise matching funds for our grant initiatives. We have invited our top legislative representatives to join us. We will have speakers that tell you about the project but we promise to keep it short enough for you to take a tour and enjoy some food and beverages. 

Remember this is a fundraiser! You can also Sponsor a Gift Basket for our Silent Auction. Just let us know where to pick it up!
