🌾 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!

We’re making the news!! ❤️❤️❤️🎉🎊🍾

“The Historical Society will host a grand re-opening celebration on Wednesday, May 14, from 3:30 to 8 p.m. The Canby Area Chamber of Commerce will have a ribbon cutting at 4 p.m., followed by a small dedication ceremony and show of appreciation for the volunteers, donors, Mark family members, and community supporters who have made this possible.

The schoolhouse will be open for drop-in tours and refreshments all evening. Parking may be limited, so carpooling is suggested”

Resurrection of historic Mark Prairie Schoolhouse is complete

After more than four years, the Mark Prairie Historical Society is ready to celebrate and welcome neighbors and the local community back into the revitalized 1879 Mark Prairie Schoolhouse.
