Dear Friends and Supporters, Our campaign to raise funds for the restoration, renovation, and re-purposing of our historic 115-year-old Barn continues as we work with the architects and engineers to flesh out and refine the design plans. Thank you to all who have contributed or pledged funds to date. In July we announced a generous challenge pledge from local resident Jeanetta Pyle to match all individual donations dollar for dollar up to $25,000 through the end of this year. We are pleased and excited to announce that since this matching offer was publicized, we have received over $135,000 in cash donations from individuals plus another $30,000 in pledged amounts yet to be received. You have helped us to far exceed Mrs. Pyle’s challenge, and we are so grateful for your support. For those of you who have not yet donated or who want to contribute more, you have multiple ways of giving to this campaign. You may give online at BrynDu.com through our donate button below, or you may print out a pledge form (also below) and mail us a check or your credit card information. However you choose to give, please know that we are a 501(c)(3) organization per the IRS and your donation is tax deductible to the extent permitted by law. If you want to know more about the Bryn Du Barn renovation project and see the preliminary designs and architectural renderings, please click on the "Learn More" button below. Though change is inevitable, our Barn project aims to preserve a bit of our local history and rural charm while also creating a very special community space. We need your financial help to do so. Thank you for your support! Candi Moore President Bryn Du Commission |

| | Bryn Du Mansion Featured in December Ohio Lottery Commercial This fall, the Bryn Du Mansion was merrily transformed into a festive Christmas scene that was made for TV, literally. This past October we were honored to host actors, directors, producers, and many film crew members for the filming of an Ohio Lottery commercial. The mansion, along with another Granville residence, is featured in this touching family commercial that is sure to warm the hearts of everyone this season, even the Grinch in your life. Do you recognize any spaces in the scenes? | | |

| | It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! You may notice a change at the Bryn Du Estate this holiday season. We've switched out the old garland for the simplicity of beautiful wreaths along our grand stone columns. Not to worry, the fence is still adorned with 3,000 festive LED lights for the merry look we've all grown to love over the years. We'd also like to say a huge thank you to local Granvillian, Steve Schneider, and the Rotary Club of Granville who, for the 20th year in a row, took great care and pride in decorating the Bryn Du fence for the season. | | |
