Ever wonder what it would be like to attend a one-room schoolhouse? Sitting in a rickety wooden desk and writing times tables on a slate like Laura Ingalls? Well wonder no more…come see us on October 17th at the Oak Summit School for our annual open house & yard sale! Our doors will be open for you to step back in time to a simpler era. Additionally, we will have some knick-knacks and treasures set out for sale—all proceeds will go towards further preservation of the school! We hope to see you for a hands on experience of local history and bargain hunting! 🍎📚

We would like to extend our thoughts, prayers, and condolences to the family and friends of the late Rick Epstein. He was a champion of local history, a wealth of knowledge, a gifted writer, a steadfast family man and friend, and will go down in history as a true local legend.

We deeply appreciate his participation, support, and the unwavering ready-to-help attitude he has always brought to the society, and will dearly miss seeing him in and out of the school house. Thanks for everything, Mr. Epstein ♥️

Pictured here is a great photo Rick took over 40 years ago of the school in our earlier days of restoration and repair. It still hangs proudly upon Oak Summit’s walls!
