Marlene Neve reported on Scranton School Days. Four classes have expressed interest so far. Some classes have asked for a half day version of the program.
The museum will be opened each Thursday from 9-3. There has been a group working during the months that we were closed to remodel the basement area. The building is clean and ready for you to view your local history.
Randy has a long list of projects to be done this year. They include a new roof on the PowWow Booth, restaining the privacy fence, repairing and repainting the inside of Scranton School, and adding shelves to handle excess inventory. The downstairs needs new lighting. All these projects will cost money so there was discussion about other fundraisers besides the Brat Fry.
