Little Red School House 200th Anniversary

Gloria Horvay
Mickleton MM

Mickleton Meeting invites Friends from the Quarter to join us in the celebration of our 200 year old Friends School, now called the Little Red Schoolhouse and used as a community center.

The happy occasion will be held Saturday, September 20, from 2–5 PM. Crafters who make items that would have been available 200 years ago, such as pottery, knitting, weaving, candles, and wood-working, are invited to demonstrate their craft. In addition, Friends are welcome to bring an animal for the petting zoo or share their musical talents. We will have colonial games for children, and hopefully a hay maze. Please contact Gloria Horvay if you would like to participate, as arrangements need to be made in advance for spaces.

There is no charge for any of the activities, with the exception of the Pig Roast meal, which cost $8 if you buy your tickets in advance at Haines Pork Shop on Kings Highway , or $10 at the door. Menu: Roast pork on roll with BBQ sauce, cole slaw, macaroni & cheese, and apple cake.

We hope you will stop by and visit our beloved schoolhouse.
