Share your stories
We need your
help! To kick off the Burnsville Historical Society’s spring exhibit theme of
“Burnsville’s Attic – 1939” we are looking for stories about 1939.
Specifically, we would love to hear about what a day was like in a small town
like Burnsville during that year. Where did people shop? What did they do for
entertainment? Where did they go to school? How were people struggling to come
off the Great Depression and prepare for the coming war?
If you lived
here or in another small town during that time or know the stories about
someone who did, please come to our open public meeting Saturday, March 15,
from 10:30 a.m. to noon at the Burnhaven Library on County Road 42 in
Burnsville. You do not have to be a member – we welcome everyone to share their
stories! Bring any items that you would like to share, too! If you have
questions, please contact President Len Nachman at 952-890-4162 or at
lennachman@aol.com.
