We Invite You to Come and Explore . . . .
THANK YOU to everyone who came for the Night at the Museum last Saturday, October 26th! There was a great turnout and it was fun to see the many who came in a costume.
A special thanks to Jesse and Jennie Leraas for their donation in memory of their mother, Bonnie, who was the originator of Night at the Museum. She was a very special person with so many great ideas.
Decorations will be up throughout the week, so come take another look! We will be participating in the Trunk or Treat from 3-5 on Halloween - Thursday.
Welcome!
Come. . . and browse... You can see a mammoth’s teeth and bones, a general store, the Setterlund Runestone, a 1909 REO, a barber shop, an Ox Cart, a model of Fort Pomme de Terre, a birch bark canoe, and numerous other pieces. Or, you can research your family through the archives of old newspapers, family histories, census records, plat books, or cemetery records.
Don’t leave without seeing the Veterans Memorial Hall honoring the many service members from Grant County.
Entry is free, although donations are welcome.
