Cultural Perspective Workshop
PROJECTILE POINTS
It was an interesting day of exploring new perspectives on the topic of Projectile Points.
The points in our museum’s collection were somewhat overlooked in the past, positioned on a board in a pretty pattern reminiscent of mosaic tiling and not revealing much of their past.
Workshop leader, Audrey Drever, inspired us to use them as the beginning of relationships, storytelling, programming and exhibits that will educate and illuminate.
Those little pieces of stone are not destined to be mosaic pieces much longer.

Summer is Over
This is the last official day for our summer staff, Brandi and Megan. They have worked very hard on building maintenance and exhibit construction. As well, they have cleaned and cleaned.
They survived the crazy Centennial weekend, met a lot of visitors and gave some tours.
They can look back on the summer work with pride. Well done, ladies!

Summer Visitor Feedback
Our museum tries to encourage our visitors to give us feedback on the museum, internet sites and the park. We’ve tried surveys but they don’t work out that well because few people like to fill out forms of any kind. Also it means remembering to ask them to fill one out! It is so easy to forget.
So when someone volunteers some feedback, it makes it much more special and real. The following message and link arrived by e-mail recently.
We had the distinct pleasure of visiting your fine town, touring your museum and spending one night in your awesome campground. I mentioned our experience in my blog titled: “Largest Tomahawk in the World!” I hope you enjoy the story. Â Â http://susanbraveheart.blogspot.com/Â I’ve let my family and friends know about you. We really enjoyed our stay. Best wishes,
Susan and Frank in Campbell River
This made our day! Guess we are doing something right.

What a great name!
This group of travelers on vintage motorbikes came today to see the museum and the 1885 Battle of Cut Knife Creek site.
They are visiting other sites in Sask as well.
