The Erie Historical Society opened the Wise Homestead Museum for the summer on Saturdays from 10 to 2. With the help of many people including a couple of groups of Questers many new items have been added. If you would like a tour at any other time please call Sarah Allene Wise, 303.828.4561 for an appointment. The Erie Historical Society invites everyone to come see what a home might have had at the turn of the century.
The major fundraising activity of the Erie Historical Society is Biscuit Day on Downtown Briggs Street. This year it will be Saturday,Sept. 20, 8 to 12 noon. Come have biscuit, gravy (or stew) sausage, juice/milk/coffee and wonderful conversation with others and enjoy the music. You will have time for browsing through many booths of arts and crafts. Raffle tickets will be available for the beautiful quilt and savings bonds of $100 and $50. The drawing will be at 12 noon.
The Interfaith Quilters of Longmont made this beautiful quilt by hand and machine. Raffle tickets are available NOW. The cost is $2.00 each or 3 for $5.00–a small investment for a beautiful quilt. Beginning May 17th (at The Erie Fair) many members will have tickets for sale and if you want some, please call me 303.828.4561 and I will deliver them to you.
I invite you to join us as a member of the Erie Historical Society and become involved in the preservation of the past for the future.
Sarah Allene Wise, President.
