Last week we had a wonderful time with a group of students from Coalstoun Lakes. They are a real credit to the teachers and staff in this small community. Respectful , Polite, outgoing, A pleasurer to have at the Museum. They showed such interest in so many things with great questions for us. Chris and Gwenda had the blacksmith forge firer up. Our collection timber Industry Items axes ,chainsaws, wedges and more were of special interest to them . Two Students took the time explained to me how our two-row peanut puller worked I feel more confident now to pass it on to Museum visitors in the future.
