March also begins our Spring school tours for all the third
grade classes studying local history. Tours are from 8:30 am
to 12:30 pm and include all areas of the museum, including
the McCoy Cook house showing early pioneer living. The
students eat lunch in the Gazebo and return to school mid
day. The March schedule is March 3rd, Belshaw Elementary;
March 10th, Mno Grant Elementary; March 24th Marsh
Elementary; March 31st, Sutter Elementary School.
The tours are completely free to all teachers, students, and
parents and the bus transportation is provided by the Keller
Canyon Mitigation Fund Grant to the Historical Society. This
is a partnership for education and history between the
Historical Society, the School District and Keller Canyon
Grants.
The
month of March will also bring Renovation and Restoration to
the "Saloon" display as our restoration projects continue at
the museum. The Saloon is having it's ceiling replaced, room
painted, and all new displays created. |
