Tour the Old Brick School House at Geneva Township Park!
At 3 p.m., GOTL resident and historian Jack Sargent will give a presentation on GOTL history from a native’s perspective. GOTL videos and the Geneva Township 200th anniversary video will be playing during the event, as well.
The museum has six rooms and most of the space has been allocated to the museum project. The building needs several major renovations prior to being able to accept visitors on an on-going basis. There is no handicapped accessibility for the structure at this time and open-house visitors are asked to take that into consideration. Also, there is no heat in the building!
Visitors are asked to bring old photographs of the schoolhouse or of classes attended there. The museum group also is seeking donations of township, city and village memorabilia that will be loaned to the group.
