This place matters.
Because history matters.
Because community matters.
Because preserving our stories matters. 💛

Thank you to everyone who helped restore this one-room schoolhouse and honor a piece of our shared Oregon history. We did it together. 🙌

🎉 A Historic Moment: The Ribbon Cutting at Mark Prairie

✂️ Ribbon officially cut! 🎉

We were honored to celebrate the Grand Reopening of the Historic Mark Prairie Schoolhouse with a special ribbon cutting ceremony, hosted by the Canby Area Chamber of Commerce.

This moment marked the official beginning of a brand-new chapter for our beloved schoolhouse, and we’re so grateful to everyone who joined us to witness it.

Thank you again to the Chamber, our supporters, and the many hands that made this day possible. What a beautiful way to step into the future while honoring the past! 💛

💪 Before the Crowd: Behind-the-Scenes at Mark Prairie Schoolhouse Grand Reopening Celebration!

It takes a village—and we are so grateful for ours!
Here’s a little peek behind the scenes at all the hard work, laughter, and teamwork that went into getting the Historic Mark Prairie Schoolhouse ready for her big day. 💛

From sweeping floors and arranging chairs to putting up signs and sprucing up the grounds, our incredible volunteers and board members showed up with full hearts and helping hands. This event would not have been possible without their dedication!

Thank you to each and every person who helped make the Grand Reopening such a beautiful success—even before the first guest arrived. 💐
