The MSHS Volunteer Recognition Event

MSHS staff and Board of Directors enjoyed visiting with MSHS volunteers at the annual Volunteer Recognition Event at Pine Tree Apple Orchard in October.  Guests took wagon rides through the orchard, and returned to a delicious picnic supper.  Family member, John Jacobson served up a wonderful presentation about operating the orchard along with Pine Tree’s famous apple pie and ice cream. Thanks to the Jacobson family for providing a beautiful setting and for donating their delicious apple cider for our volunteers to enjoy.
