SFJA offers Campbell House for special events

The Junior Auxiliary of Francis County was granted the historic Campbell House through the generosity of the Jarratt family in January 2006.

As a tribute to its architectural land cultural significance, the 100-year-old house was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in December 2006. Junior Auxiliary has since invested $170,000 into a major renovation of the house in order to improve functionality for use as the organizations headquarters and a community rental facility.

The historic facility also houses the Marsha Cohn Enrichment Center, which will provide a safe and welcoming haven for children's activities. The house is poised to be the organization's landmark legacy for years to come.

The historic facility is the perfect setting for special events including engagement parties, baby showers, family reunions, milestone anniversary celebrations and it makes for the perfect romantic venue for Southern weddings with accommodations for an outside ceremony.
