The 2nd graders had an awesome Pioneer Day on Friday, October 13. They started the day at the Murray County Historical Museum. Thank you to Gaylene Chapman from the museum. Janet Timmerman, Case Vos, and Dennis Miller taught the students how to press apples to make apple cider. Luann Parker showed the children how to make butter with a churn. Margaret Kluis was in the log cabin and shared stories about pioneer life. The students learned about flint and fire starting with Leon Carney. Travis Spartz, Joe Biren, Wes Biren, Bob Ossefort, and Siebe Muller brought their teams of horses to school and gave the children a ride in their wagons. In the afternoon students participated in several pioneer activities…stitching samplers, cat’s cradle, marbles, quill pen writing, cornhusk wreaths and checkers in the classrooms with Mrs. Gillette, Mrs.Bobeldyk and Mrs. Fraser.
We had a great day!
THANK YOU to all our volunteers who helped make it a memorable day!
