The Pine Knob School


This school built in 1925 has 4 classrooms, a partial basement to house the furnace, and a stage for performing.   The school is not open at present to the public, but it can be viewed from outside. The building is original and is used for the Theatre rehearsals and storage. The last public school was held here in 1959-60.

The old Stinson House was moved to the Theatre site from about a mile up the road. This house built around 1860 is one of the oldest homes that still exist in Pine Knob today. Located next to the Theatre Box Office, this building is now occupied as a Museum and is open each night of the shows.
