Join us for SUMMERFEST - Sunday Aug 10th 12-4:30 P.M.!
Mark your calendars for our next big event in August. Summerfest will be coming round again on the 2nd Sunday of August 10th, 2025
The North Hennepin Pioneer Society invites alumni, family, friends, neighbors and people interested in local history to Summerfest.
The NH Pioneer Society hosts the event with the help of area businesses. Featured activities will be entertainment by Rod Cerar' an International Entertainer-featuring the "Music of our Lives", free face painting by Encore Entertainment, touring of the school and a chance to sit at a student desk, Kid's games, door prizes and raffle prizes, flea market, plus a local food wagon, BSQ's BBQ, Bryan Swanson, "Pitmaster"!
The Summerfest event will be held on the school grounds of Corcoran's Burschville School District #107. The school is located 4 ½ miles West of Corcoran on Hennepin County Road #10 at: 22995 County Road 10, and is open to the public.
Funds collected at Summerfest help with the expenses and maintenance of the last one-room school in Corcoran. One project at a time!
Between the rainy days of June, a mason started reconstructing the chimney and capping it. Next we will be reroofing all the buildings, at the school, before Summerfest. Ashton McGee Reconstruction will be completing both jobs. This will all come about with the help from the community. The funds were secured with gambling funds donated to the City of Corcoran. Without this assistance the work could not have been accomplished. Many thanks to the Community! We couldn't do it without YOU!
Summerfest invites you to come see what's happening at our little Gem in Corcoran. You can walk through those doors and remember a simpler time when children attended a little one-room school in the country.
