BUT THE VOLUNTEERS HAVE STILL BEEN WORKING!

There has been alot of shoveling and other hard labor taking place by the CHS volunteers to get the Big Museum building (aka Botting Road Barn/Machine Shed) ready for the final move.  We need some good weather in order to finish the move.

RECENT EVENTS!

Thanks to everyone who supported the Christmas Gift Boutique held in the CHS log cabin and the bake/Christmas items sale at the 1877 Town Hall the weekend of December 3rd and 4th.  It was a success, so mark your 2017 calendars for a repeat event.

An Exclusive Christmas Gift Boutique

Come experience the 1840’s Caledonia Historical Park log cabin filled with a unique variety of quality handmade gifts; jewelry, wood carvings, chainsaw carvings, handmade wearables, shattered glass art and more.  This lovely event takes place Saturday and Sunday, December 3rd and 4th from 10 am to 4 pm.  A portion of the proceeds go to the CHS.

The Caledonia Historical Society will be providing a bake sale in the 1877 Town Hall during the same hours as the Christmas Gift Boutique.  All proceeds go to support the CHS.  The Caledonia Historical Park is just a short drive from anywhere–just east of Hwy 38 on 5 Mile Road.

Work on the Big Museum is Progressing!

The foundation is poured and the CHS volunteers have been shoveling and leveling gravel for  the floor of the Big Museum (formerly known as the Botting Rd machine shed/barn).  Hopefully, the weather will hold long enough that the movers can place the barn on the foundation soon.  Thanks to everyone who has been following and helping the progress of the Big Museum project.
