Historic Sites of Manitoba: Picnic Ridge School No. 1600 (Municipality of West Interlake)
The Picnic Ridge School District was established in January 1912 and a one-room schoolhouse operated at NW11-25-8W in what is now the Municipality of West Interlake. In 1967, the district was dissolved and its catchment area became part of the Lakeshore School Division. The former school building is no longer present at the site and a new building has replaced it.
