04-26-2025 Saturday and 04-27-2025 Sunday		The Maple Festival! IVHS is dependent on fundraising and donations, and the success of this event is important to us. Please remember that all our work is done by volunteers. No one is paid. The funds we raise are used to pay utilities, insurance, printing, postage, supplies and repairs. Join us at The Maple Festival in Franklinville, NY for food and fun. We will have a raffle for gift baskets and gift certificates, and a silent auction. The winner need not be present to win. If you are looking for books to enjoy this summer, check out our display featuring many of the latest mysteries and publications. Prices range from 25 cents to 50 cents. No hardcover is over $1.00. Finally, please consider giving your family and friends an IVHS membership. This year's Highlight is a beautiful queen-size quilt with a bumble bee theme. It was created and donated by Suzanne Linderman. Tickets are now available at 3 Park Square and at the Maple Festival. Tickets cost 1 for $5.00 and 3 for $10.00. The winner will be chosen on Sunday, April 27th. This event is the main fundraiser for our organization. We have had a serious bee problem at The Miner's Cabin and it is crucial that we address the issue this year. We have also discovered structural problems that need our attention. Our Queen Anne Victorian mansion is 130 years old. To save this historical home, fund raising is important. If you are interested in helping preserve our history, please come to room 221 during the Maple Festival to support us. Please come out and support the Franklinville The Maple Festival and the Ischua Valley Historical Society.

Wishing You Well!		While there is no mask mandate, if any of you wish to continue masking we will understand. Thankfully, we have become more knowledgeable in how to stay healthy and still enjoy social events. Please keep this in mind as we move forward together. See You Soon.

Watch for more details, and final dates and times as the year progresses. These will be posted here, in our quarterly Newsletter, and in our local Newspapers.
