Have you experienced the historical museum yet? Our visitors are absolutely loving it! We proudly offer group tours as well! Recently, we hosted the Retired Teachers Group from Northwest School District, the Nescopeck Historical Society, and just today, we welcomed the Wapwallopen Historical Society.

Check out  our amazing collection of pennants from Shickshinny and Northwest High School! If you have any that we're missing, we would be thrilled to add them to our collection! Your donations will help us celebrate our incredible history and school spirit. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have something special to share!

 Here's a suggestion:
"When you take your tour, don't forget to ask about the flag and the eagle! There's a fascinating story behind both that you won't want to miss. It's a great way to connect with the history of our area~!
