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.
This year we will feature gift baskets and certificates. Please
consider donating a basket or a donation to make one. Some of
the features will be a $50 certificate to The Beef and Barrel,
A lottery tree with 20 chances to win, a movie night with Tom
Cruise’s Maverick, (snacks included) and a great barbecue
set. We are also looking for volunteers to fill two hour shifts.
Our basket raffle will be held at the school, but 3 Park Square
will also be open. We will display our Ontario Knife exhibit,
an incredible 19th century carpenter’s chest with all
the tools, maple syrup supplies and antiques and a country store
exhibit. There will be items for sale and a large collection
of the most recent mystery books. On Saturday, The Miner’s
Cabin will be open from 1:00 to 3:00 PM for tours.
Please come out and support The Maple Festival and the Ischua
Valley Historical Society.

Wishing
You Well!
While the mask mandate has been lifted
for gatherings, 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.
