Roofers from Gallop Roofing and Remodeling Inc. in Wanchese prepare to install new roofing on Tyrrell Hall in Columbia. The county commissioners purchased the land and erected the building in 1976, using a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development grant, and it has served multiple purposes over the decades. American Legion Post 182 was sponsoring an American Red Cross blood drive inside when this photo was taken Sept. 28.
