Crestview 5th Grades - May 27, 2003

Fifth grade classes visited the Clive Historical Society. Originally scheduled for the 19 of May which would have made this the first class to visit ... their day was cancelled due to weather. However, this day in May was beautiful and all seemed to have a good time learning more about how people traveled, got telegraph messages and bought food and implements at the "super Wal-mart" of the day ... the good ole General Store/Post Office.
