Winter Activities

What does the Historical Society do in the winter. Winter time is slow around here, so now is the time we plan for upcoming events for the year. The Pioneer Women are sewing and quilting and getting ready for the Quilt Show on June 5 & 6. They come in every Wednesday morning and you can drop by to see how busy they are.
The curator is catching up on cataloging items that come in. She has just set up a new display on Huckster Wagons. There is a display case with items that one might have found on a huckster wagon. She has photos of some of the huckster operators that used to travel the county to sell their wares.
What can you do this winter? I have a suggestion. The Archives is always looking for family photos. Do you have a box of old photos that you've been putting off going through? This winter is the time to do it. Please bring in your photos to let us scan them. Or if you don't know who they are and have given up trying to place them with names, please donate them to us. We can share the images and maybe someone else can identify them some day. Whatever you do this winter, if you are bored come and visit us for a day. Check our winter hours and we would love to see you.
