Each year, Griffith Third Graders participate in a week-long activity called โThe ElmerJ Program,โ sponsored by the Historical Society. Students learn about our townโs history and visit our Historical Park as part of their social studies curriculum.

Our volunteers & the Canadian National Police Service do presentations & tours at no cost, but there is a fee for the bus & books that the students use for the program. We donโt want any student to miss out, so we are asking for donations to cover the fees. We hope to raise $1500 this year, and we have about $1000 more to go.
