Interested parties are invited to submit proposals for the long-term lease of the schoolhouse. The NPS has not specified the preferred use for the schoolhouse but is open to a variety of proposals that respect the historical significance and integrity of the property. This is a unique opportunity for individuals or organizations interested in operating within a nationally recognized park and contributing to the preservation of an important historical site.
The Request for Proposal (RFP) process is competitive, ensuring that the lease will be awarded to the proposal that offers the best combination of financial return and preservation of the schoolhouse. Detailed information on the RFP, including submission guidelines and evaluation criteria, can be found on the NPS website. The NPS encourages potential applicants to review the RFP thoroughly before submitting their proposals.
