Until a deal was struck with the town council in 2015, meetings of the Salem-Liberty Homemakers/Lower Salem Boys 4-H Club were held in the church's basement. This group is the result of the consolidation of a club made up predominantly of members of Salem-Liberty's FHA (FCCLA) Organization when it served as a high school and the Lower Salem Boys Club which was established in 1920 and is the oldest operational 4-H club in the state of Ohio. Lower Salem was once home to a hotel, a doctor's office, an armory, Wagner's General Store, and a gas station and auto parts shop. While all of these buildings remain standing, all have gone out of business. The general store has been home to a number of startup businesses, but none have survived much longer than a year.
