TROY — Bryan Begg, owner of Bakehouse Bread & Cookie Co. and president of the board of Troy Main Street, presented a leadership gift this month in support of “The Downtown Drive,” a fundraising campaign to repair the IOOF building/old Miami County courthouse and reopen West Main Street.

The Troy Historic Preservation Alliance (THPA) now owns the building and has set a $750,000 fundraising goal for the stabilization repairs, which must be complete by April 30, 2024. Those wishing to donate can visit www.thpatroy.org.
