The museum board members march in the September labour day parade to raise awareness of the Ashern Pioneer Museum. The board prepared various floats and skits to promote their work and to show the spirit of the community. What fun and laughter they brought to those memorable parades.

St. Michael's Anglican Church

St.Michael's Anglican church built in1911, was once located on First Avenue North in Ashern. As a small child I remember many occasions in which I participated. Events such as my baptism, being train bearer at my cousin's wedding, attending Sunday school, later on as a teenagerthere was confirmation classes, first communion and friends weddings.
The church seemed so large in the beginning but now it amazes me that all these activities took place in such a small building.
