Treaty 4 Display

We acknowledge that we are on Treaty 4 territory traditional lands of the First Nations and Metis People

 

We wanted to create a simple display with key points about Treaty 4 that would make people want to find out more on their own.

 We also included photos of First Nations People who used to come to Cupar for July 1^st parades and celebrations. They would come years ago by horse back and wagon from Gordon Reserve and stay north of Cupar by Brent and Jackie Ermel's farm. They would stay a week or so for activities in Cupar and at the sports grounds.

 

Summer is passing Matthew

I can't believe nearly 6 of the 8 weeks for our summer student have passed. We have been working him really hard and he is a joy to be around.

Matthew and I have spent a lot of time organizing and condensing our storage areas. Matthew has made lists attached to the inside of the storage cupboards so we know exactly what is in there. Not only will it help find artifacts but help decide what to get rid of in the future. We have all our assorted frames in one place now and realize we don't need to get any more from garage sales.

No Matthew don't look up there. I thought those were fake cupboards. Maybe next year.

Every artifact has a story

Every artifact has a story, but too often when someone donates something they sadly forget about sharing that story. Often it may only be a few lines but it makes all the difference. Artifacts can trigger our memory and we all have slightly different memories. So remember that memory is equally important as the object.

Time is running out

Time is running out to come and see our summer exhibit on softball in Cupar. You may recognize yourself, family members or friends. While you are at the museum you should stroll over to the ball diamonds, improvements are really coming along. Remember it is never too late to donate to the Cupar Ball Diamond Project. You can contact Kevin Bonish or Kelly Findling. After all we will all benefit from all the efforts of our volunteers.
