Old Tyme Country School

Needs a New School Marm


The Kanabec History Center is looking for a new teacher for this coming 
Old Tyme Country School program. This is a paid position, payment, based 
on experience, covers the 3 weeks of classes and some prep time. 
Qualified candidates will have had teaching experience (teaching lic. 
not necessary), enjoy working with children and creating an era 
appropriate curriculum. The main purpose of the program for the students 
is a living history experience and of course to have fun.

A total of 89 students attended last seasons 3 one-week sessions of Old 
Tyme Country School. The sessions take place on the Kanabec History 
Center grounds in the one room Whittier School House usually in July and 
early August. Each one week session of country school has students first 
grade through eighth grade. The Old Tyme Country School teacher leads 
the children in lessons and games from the early 1900’s. Students come 
to class dressed in costumes and bring a lunch bucket or basket. On each 
Friday family and friends are invited to a student program followed by 
an ice cream social and lemonade. Students bring cookies to share during 
the ice cream social.

If you are interested in teaching Old Tyme Country School contact the 
History Center by sending a resume and cover letter to the Kanabec 
History Center PO Box 113, Mora MN 55051. You can also e-mail it to: 
center at kanabechistory.org <mailto:center at kanabechistory.org>. Although 
it is not a requirement prior knowledge of the History Center is a 
plus. The Kanabec History Center is located at 805 West Forest Avenue in 
Mora.


PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOPS

at the Kanabec History Center, Instructor Dee Kotaska


*Understanding the Digital SLR and Using Manual Exposure Settings *

*Tues. Mar. 25 (6:30 to 9:00 PM)*

Today’s cameras have automatic exposure settings that will give the 
correct exposure in most situations. However, there are situations when 
one wants to override the automatic settings and control the shutter 
speed and aperture or create special effects. We will review the 
features that distinguish SLR from film cameras and how to set and use 
those features. We will also discuss aperture and shutter speeds and 
other factors like ISO that affect getting a more correctly exposed 
image. Appropriate for SLR camera owners or point and shoot cameras that 
have the capability of manual exposure settings. *BRING CAMERA AND 
MANUAL. Min. 3 students - Max. 7, **contact the Kanabec History Center 
for fee information*

✒ *Must Pre-Register & Pre-Pay **Make checks payable to KHC, **Mail to:
