Sunrise School move bringing out volunteers

The historic Sunrise School — left vacant with the construction of a new township hall — is the focus of a lot of activity now involving a host of volunteers working to coordinate the date and firm up financing for a move in coming months. The schoolhouse will be moved to the Almelund Threshing Show grounds where it will become part of the collection of old time structures and will stand as a symbol of how education was pursued in many schoolhouses that were situated in Chisago County back when 30 or so separate “districts” operated here.
