The Moosehorn Heritage Museum would like to give a huge thank you to everyone who stopped by our 3rd annual book and media sale this weekend. It was a great success and we had a fantastic time saying hello and sharing great deals with the community. Thank you to all our wonderful community donators! Your contributions for our sale were deeply appreciated. Shout out to the wonderful staff from the Moosehorn branch of Access Credit Union for handing out free cookies, water and hosting fun draws to bring more traffic to our sale. And a final big thank you to all of our hard working board members and volunteers! They put in a lot of time collecting, sorting and storing donations. Then setting up, running,  and cleaning up after the sale, as well as hosting tours of the museum and answering questions throughout the day.

August 10 2024 – Moosehorn Heritage Museum had a great turn out during the Moosehorn Community Celebrations Event.

2024 is Moosehorn Heritage Museum’s 50^th Anniversary. The occasion was celebrated with free delicious cupcakes and coffee. The cupcakes were baked by student Tansy Tober and volunteer Dianne Bittner. Karen Nachtigall did an amazing job of teaching us how to decorate the cupcakes with buttercream icing. Three hundred cupcakes were given out during the event and after the event to attendees and volunteers.

Another highlight of the event was the Moosehorn Heritage Museum’s float in the Moosehorn Community Celebration parade. This year’s float was pulled together by our museum student Tansy Tober and her family (Larry, Lanyth and Talyia Tober). It looked amazing and was acknowledged as the best float entry.

Ryan Metner, Vicky Metner and Marlene Metner ran a very successful Media Sale which raised monies for the museum.

Derek Johnson Manitoba MLA joined us for the Moosehorn Heritage Museum Celebration during the Moosehorn Community Celebrations event. We appreciate all of the support we have received from the Government of Manitoba during the last couple of years. Picture of Derek Johnson and Museum President Glen Bittner.

The museum was very fortunate in being designated as the site for the Moosehorn Welcomes You photo board, which was painted by local artist Dennis Rawluk for the Moosehorn Community Celebrations event. We are very happy to display the board and have it available to visitors for picture taking.

Due to a shortage of funding the Moosehorn Heritage Museum did not receive monies for this year’s Summer Student. The Museum Board decided to move forward and hire a student that would be paid for out of the Museum savings.

Thanks to three generous donations we have a total of $2,200.00 to put towards the Museum Summer Student salary. Thank you to these individuals, your generosity is greatly appreciated.
