Each May museum volunteers offer hands-on activities for elementary schools in the surrounding area. Activities take place near or inside the museum's restored buildings. These activities provide young people an opportunity to experience life as it was in the mid-1900's.

 

Activities include quilting, making ice cream, churning butter, sharpening knives, trapping, operating the telegraph equipment, experiencing class in a one room school, singing in the church, early medicine, old fashioned games, rope making, and much more.

Area schools are encouraged to participate. Schools are accepted on a first-come-first-served basis as there is a limit of 165 students. The museum volunteers will also conduct special tours for school groups - just contact us for more information!
