Richelieu-Bucksville Day - Was held on Sunday May 18th, 2008 at the Museum. A great day which brought back memories of old. Addie Burns Hutcheson, who is 96 years young, shared many memories with many from Bucksville and Richelieu. Oh! she has such a clear memory of her youth.

Humanities speaker - Hugh Ridenour gave a very informative discussion on the topic on "A Surgeon's Tale - Life and Death in the Orphan Brigade." For Further Information & Pictures:

During the month of February the Auburn Cub Scout Pack 540 visited the Museum. Cubs and parents alike really enjoyed the visit. The many artifacts were of great interest but the kids in particular were in awe of the 'one room school.' I think the parents were taken by surprise too.
