Crestview 1st Grade - May 27, 2003 - 9:30 A.M.

On May 27, 2003 the First Grade Classes of Crestview School, became the first classes to tour the Clive Historical Society's Museum facility as a School.

Three classes arrived at 9:30 A.M. The parking lot was used as the staging area for the welcome and introduction by Linda Shanks. Each student was given a "goodie" bag for keeping handouts and other interactive items given at the Depot, Caboose and General Store. Each class was then instructed to go to the different facility locations where they listened to the speakers and were invited to tour the buildings.

The following pictures were taken of this visit. Click on each for a better view.
