Exchange Club Freedom Shrine installed at junior high school The Exchange Club of Perrysburg recently installed the Freedom Shrine in the Perrysburg Junior High School along the wall of the history classroom wing. The shrine previously was housed in the old junior high building (Commodore Building). The Freedom Shrine is a collection of 22 of the most important and historic American documents, including the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States and the Gettysburg Address. Developed by the National Exchange Club, the Freedom Shrine originated from the Freedom Train that toured the nation in 1947 carrying an exhibit of historic documents. The purpose of the Freedom Shrine is twofold. It puts before young Americans proof that the freedom and greatness enjoyed today were not purchased easily and reminds them that these gifts must be cherished and protected. The documents of the Shrine represent foundation stones which permit the present, as we know it, to exist and the future, as we dream it, to be attainable. Pictured with the Freedom Shrine is Robin Laird, PJHS assistant principal and member of the Perrysburg Exchange Club. Historic Perrysburg, Inc.
