We have received several donations already! THANK YOU! Both the schoolhouse and main museum need new roofs this year - quite an expense! We have received one grant for the schoolhouse roof bid, which brought us down to the $20,000 we are accepting donations for.

We are very lucky to have this schoolhouse and its history as the birthplace of the 4-H Emblem.
