Some will say that life was simpler decades or a century ago. Some will say that living off the land was actually an easier, more satisfying way of living compared to the complex hustle and bustle of today. Debate on these matters will be never-ending and without clear-cut consensus. Machinery Day at the Camrose & District Centennial Museum is a wonderful way to get a glimpse of what living was like for those who homesteaded, farmed, worked and operated small businesses in this area from the early 1900s and beyond. You will hear the sounds of vintage tractors and automobiles. You will marvel at the work of an old-time blacksmith. You will be able to reminisce and visualize years gone by as you walk through buildings built over 100 years ago. Let your imagination wander back to prairie fields in the fall as you enjoy a mini-threshing demonstration. And, take time to learn what your ancestors may have used for everyday life, school and worship as you view artifacts in each of the unique buildings on the local museum grounds.
Machinery Day at the Camrose Museum takes place Sunday, September 16th from 12 noon to 5 p.m.
