Museum - Historical Museum at St. Gertrude in Cottonwood, Idaho

Today the Cottonwood FB page is honoring Sabi Frei. He is also honored here at the museum in our Interesting Lives exhibit.

SGA Sophomore Class of 1950 - It is a beautifully arranged class photo!

Can you help us identify the students from Cottonwood High School’s Class of 1929? We’ve identified a few (see the second photo posted). Please let us know if the names we have are correct.

Greencreek had both a Catholic and a public school building, with each housing four grades, and the cafeteria was in a third building. Sr. Lucille’s book explains how that happened.

We are celebrating the Arnoti family and will finish their display next week. They are one of our fascinating lives exhibits. As the new museum manager, I’m in awe of all the acts of kindness and service the Sisters performed through the years. Their sponsorship of immigrants is one of many.

Look for our St. Gertrude Kindness Beads on our website next week. You can also call 208-962-2050 to order. They would make especially nice gifts for grandchildren with follow ups of what acts of kindness were done each day. If you want to give a lasting gift to those you love, help them form the habit of performing random acts of kindness. Please note that the medals have been blessed.
