Wish I could give them 10 stars. We had Samantha give us a personal tour. It is hard to believe ALL the items have been donated from the community. They have a little something for everyone.
What a great museum and a fitting way to save a school building. The director was super helpful and informative. She answered our questions and brought more insights to the artifacts.
Definitely worth your time. Great family activity to build civic pride. I found most interesting the impact of mines and European Immigration on creation of the Village and entire region.
Excellent museum with a large amount of local artifacts. Well maintained, with handicap access. It's open on Tuesdays and Thursdays and 1/2 day on Saturday.
This is a very impressive "small town" museum. It's two stories tall and full of wonderful displays of not only locals, but artifacts of ancient times. It's free to visit (donations are welcome) and can provide several hours of interesting entertainment to any history buff.
