Upcoming Projects
We have many projects in the works. Any and all assistance–physical, financial, or otherwise–in moving our vision forward is greatly appreciated. Please contact us if you are interested in helping out.
- School house exterior needs re-stuccoed.
A big thanks to Griff Malleck and Tom Manker for all the work they put into re-modeling the interior, as well as to all who have donated original items. - Blacksmith shop needs siding.
We really love the original wood siding with red paint, but keeping it as so over time would be difficult and laborious. - Many items and equipment are required to transform the blacksmith shop into a working location for classes and demonstrations.
- Move and re-furbish the Pawnee Squaw gravesite and historical marker from the city park to our corner lot.
- …and much more!
