We Have the Power to Impact Our Future, and We’re Doing Something About It
MISSION STATEMENT
Adair Living History, Inc. (ALH) believes in the value and importance of local and public history. We aim to find opportunities to help the City of Adair Village and its surrounding neighborhoods recognize, acknowledge, preserve, and share the history of the Adair (Kalapuya Illahee) area.
Barracks
In 2010, the city of Adair Village took possession of two of the few remaining structures from the World War II-era Camp Adair cantonment. The city arranged to move the buildings; placed them on foundations; installed infrastructure; and put on new siding, new windows and new roofs. These buildings, which you can see near Highway 99W, now need to have the balance of their restoration done
