Significant events included the spring and fall soccer leagues and soccer camp; tenants including museum and artisans from the local area; use of the building and grounds by organizations throughout the eastern shore to sponsor walks,runs, bike-a-thons to benefit local non- profits; use of the playground and fields by children, and visitors who come to visit (especially alumni of the former School) and to enjoy the nature trail and observation deck over the creek.
