This was a great conference. Saw lots of great museums, and heard lots of new information. The tour of the school house at Forest Grove was fabulous. Bill Sherman was a great resource. Thank you!

    The story of what went on inside that eminently successful country school is an important part of Americana. It should be preserved along with a few remaining buildings wherein the great cultural pageant took place."
