Rotary volunteers stopped by to lend a hand and help hang these beautifully preserved certificates from the Marks Prairie 4-H Club. What a great tribute to the generations of youth who were part of this important legacy. Thank you to our volunteers for helping us bring this history back to life!

🌾 Got an extra wheelbarrow lying around? 🛞

We’re looking for a gently used (or even new!) wheelbarrow to help us with ongoing grounds maintenance at the Historic Mark Prairie Schoolhouse. If you have one you’d like to donate, we’d be so grateful!

Your support, whether it’s time, tools, or treasure, helps us keep this special place looking beautiful for the community.

Drop us a message or email us at:
mp1847@markprairiehistoricalsociety.org if you can help! 💚

🌟 We are honored! 🌟

At the April 16th Canby City Council meeting, the Mark Prairie Historical Society received a special proclamation from Mayor Brian Hodson, declaring May 2025 as Historic Preservation Month in the City of Canby.

Judi Aus proudly accepted the proclamation on behalf of our organization, a meaningful moment recognizing the years of dedication poured into preserving the 1879 Mark Prairie Schoolhouse.

Thank you to Carol Palmer of the Canby Heritage & Landmark Committee, for writing the proclamation and selecting Mark Prairie Historical Society for the nomination, the City of Canby, and to everyone who continues to support our mission. We are truly grateful!
