Photographs are from September 16, 2000. The old building served as a school and a church for many decades. The upkeep of the building is supported through used clothing sales at the nearby Hilda Store. In 1901 the building was deeded to the community to be used as school. Although it ceased to be used as a school in the 1950s, many older community members remember attending school there.
Music includes early country, bluegrass, gospel, and fiddle music.
Most musicians play guitars and sing, but often someone will bring a mandolin, fiddle, dobro, or even washtub bass. Some sing from memory, while others prefer to bring word notebooks. When it is fiddler Ray Curbo's turn to lead, he usually chooses an old-time fiddle tune.
