History

A post office called Shade was established in 1837, and remained in operation until 1996.[3] In 1880, Shade had 175 inhabitants.[4]

Public services

The old Shade school has been converted to a community center, The Shade Community Center Association (SCCA), a registered non-profit entity set up to serve the community in many ways. The SCCA offers a lending library, open to the public; potluck lunches on Thursdays; musical jam sessions; a Senior Citizens Center and many other fun and educational services.

The community itself exists mostly as it was in the late 1950s, with the relocation of the old store to a new building and new construction of homes in a rural setting only minutes from Athens.

The residents of Shade are served by the Alexander Local School District and Alexander High School. They are also served by the Athens County Public Library, with branches in Albany, Athens, Chauncey, Coolville, Glouster, Nelsonville, and The Plains.
