The fabric things from the Paulencu house are packed away from pesky rodents, ready for the winter. Another season done. Our mannequins are safely stored in a warm place. Thanks to all our volunteers.

Found these programs from the Sundown Theatre in Inglis, MB in some of my grandmother's and auntie's papers. They date to around 1950. There are the names of the movies as well as name is the businesses that sponsored the screenings.

A bit behind on our posts. BIG Thanks! to all the volunteers that came out at the end of August to help Father Andrew clean the Pioneer Church after the restoration. It was a big job and it looks so beautiful after their dedicated efforts.

You'll also see here a photo of the four historic icons that have been added to the St-Elijah Pioneer Museum collection. They will soon be installed in the Pioneer Church.
