(Photo provided) Evergreen students experience Kerbyville Museum ‘Heritage Day’ On Thursday, March 11, the Kerbyville Museum spon- sored the third annual “Heritage Day” for fourth- grade students from Ever- green Elementary School of Cave Junction. Approximately 75 fourth graders, around 12 parents, three teachers plus Evergreen Principal David Valenzuela participated in this day-long event. Museum volunteers, along with members of the Sourdough Chapter, Back- country Horsemen’s Club, welcomed the students and adults to a variety of history- related programs. Addition- ally, members of the Illinois River Valley Arts Council assisted with an arts project. “This program was funded by a grant from Trust Management Services of Waldport, Ore., as well as a small amount from the 21st Century Grant through Three Rivers School District,” said Dennis Strayer, museum board president. Also, local miners Steve Bethke, Mike Milner and Zack Gray helped educate the students on gold panning. They explained how histori- cally important to Illinois Valley was the discovery of gold in the valley in 1851. The partially restored William & Nannie Naucke Historic House was utilized to educate students through hands-on programs. They were shown how clothing was washed in pioneer days using wash boards and wash tubs, as well as a separate program on butter-making using old style butter churns. Thomas Doty presented a Native American program in the Native American Pit House. In celebration of Earth Day, Rogue Community Col- lege in Grants Pass will host “Sustainapalooza!” on Thurs- day, April 22 with a wide range of activities. The free event will be held from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the RCC Redwood Cam- pus. Activities will be held in the Student Center/Cafeteria and central campus areas. Sponsored by the RCC Environmental Sustainability Club and Redwood Campus student government, the “carnivalesque” celebration will spotlight sustainable ven- dors, businesses, and organi- zations, according to Britta Beckstead, recycling coordi- nator. “Our goal is to promote environmental awareness and education, celebrate all the Earth has to offer, and show people how thinking sustaina- bly can be fun and interest- ing,” she said. “This is a chance to support local green businesses and organiza- tions.” Music and fire dancing will be featured, and food and beverages available. Many area vendors will be present. Participation of RCC faculty and students will include the RCC Science Dept.’s annual plant sale, free massage by massage students, Nature walks with Russ Mitchell, and demon- strations by John Salinas on brewing beer and root beer and making ice cream.
