Historic Canton Church - 1875
History Field Trip 2021
The 2021 Seventh Grade History Field Trip was the 4th annual event (2020 was cancelled due to Covid 19) starting in 2017.
Canton Church Restoration, Inc. invites the seventh grade students to a history field trip at the Canton Church because the seventh grade students are studying Montana history.
History Teachers David Lawson and Mara McDonald accompanied the students along with Townsend Schools superintendent Susie Hedalon. Over 40 students made the trip.
The students were given a short presentation on the history of the Canton Church then a presentation on the history of Broadwater County focusing on the historic Communities and Towns in Broadwater County.
Afterwards Canton Church Restoration fed the attendees a hamburger/hotdog and chips, cookies and water lunch outside. The students then visited the historic Saint Joseph Cemetery (the original Canton Valley Cemetery).
On the way back to town the students stopped a the historic Centerville Cemetery.
Mr. Lawson asked the students for a write up on what they learned on the field trip: student responses to the field trip
