SCOTTVILLE — The Western Michigan Old Engine Club hosted its annual Education Day for fifth graders Wednesday, Sept. 18, at its show grounds at Scottville Riverside Park. The event has taken place for over 30 years. Several of the volunteers commented that many of the kids attending now are the children of those who attended the earlier years of the education day. During the event, children learned about agriculture in the early 20th century.

Schools participating included Ludington Area School District, Mason County Eastern, Mason County Central, Baldwin, Pentwater, Onekama and several homeschool students. Over 350 students attended.
