Country museum site for paranormal investigation
The Van Buren County Museum will sponsor a fundraiser visit by the Southern Michigan Paranormal Investigators (SMPI) Saturday June 17, 2016. The group will seek out paranormal activity at the century plus old building, located at 58471 Red Arrow Hwy., in front of the county fairgrounds. The SMPI’s have been coming to the museum since 2009 and upon finding unusual readings on their sophisticated equipment have been returning several times a year. The public is invited to attend this event that begins at 9 p.m. and ends at 1 a.m. Pre-registration is required and reservations can be made by calling 269-621-2546 or 269-569-1639, cost is $10 per person and can be paid at the door, space is limited. Day of the event the cost is $15 if space is still available. Participants are required to bring a flashlight and to wear comfortable shoes. The site’s history can be traced back to the 1800’s when the county’s poor and indigent population did not have the benefit of a social support system and as a result the care of those people was provided by the county. The Van Buren County Poor House was originally a wood frame farmhouse set on 173 acres. This served until 1884, when it was destroyed by fire, resulting with the loss of many lives. Because of the fire, the county realized the need for a less fire prone dwelling and built a brick structure. The Poor House operated until 1952, when it was closed due to changes in the care of the poor. In 1972 the Van Buren County Historical Society began creating the museum, filling the four story, 44 room building with Van Buren History. The museum’s hours are Wednesday, Friday and Sunday Noon to 5 p.m. Wednesday is research day-by calling 269-621-2188 in advance of a visit, volunteers may be able to find the bit of local or personal history you may be looking for. The museum offers a number of volunteer opportunities as well.
