The Museum’s Collection

There’s much more to the Museum than what we’re exhibiting out in the community. Check out the fascinating exhibits that the Museum had when it had a permanent home. We hope that it will again.

Sample our extensive collection of artifacts and historic photos. Many of these can be seen only here. Click on the photos to visit our virtual museum.

Historic Buildings
