Each April and May, North Creek Elementary School second-graders are introduced to the history of Chelsea and the surrounding area.

On Friday, April 24, Janet Ogle-Mater from the Chelsea Area Historical Society furthered that education with an interactive presentation focused on the early settlement of Chelsea.

Students also got to test their knowledge about local landmark buildings and will be able to put it to concrete use when they take their “history tours” of Chelsea in May.
