New in - Courtesy of North Of 54 Cinematography, this YouTube video provides a tour of the museum and its many offerings.

September 26th the Governor General of Canada, Her Excellency, The Right Honorable Julie Payette toured the Museum.

Wednesday, October 23 the grade 7 & 8 class of Cranberry Portage under the guidance of Mrs. V, made their second visit to the Museum. They have been studying the history of 'Cranberry Carrying Place' and its importance in the fur trade and exploration of those very early days. This second visit was devoted to the development of our community and the importance it played in the settlement of this northern area of Manitoba. The tragedy of the fire of June 4, 1929 - (Slideshow) which totally destroyed the community which had been established at the lake shore. The generosity and support of those that had salvaged a few of their belongings and shared. The strength of those that chose to stay and rebuild the community across the tracks. They came to know some of the extremely interesting individuals that called Cranberry Portage home. The students have been a joy to have in the Museum. It has been two super afternoons and we look forward to another. Thank you Mrs. V for making the Museum a part of the history curriculum. And Thank you grade 7 and 8's for being such an enthusiastic group of students to visit Cranberry Portage's Museum.
