Oct. 14th's the big day
The Lakewood Historical Society Museum will open Saturday, Oct. 14. We're all very excited about this storefront museum, which will be the society's home until a permanent site is developed. This will be a place where we can gather photographs, documents, other items and, most importantly, gather the people who care about preserving and interpreting our heritage.
I myself expect to be there scanning in copies of all the photographs various people have offered the society!
The storefront is located in the Colonial Center, across the street from Columbia Bank, at 6211 Mount Tacoma Drive SW. For now, the museum will be open noon to 4 on Fridays and Saturdays.
The society is also celebrating the opening of the new LHS Web site. If you have any comments about the site, let me know and I will pass them along to the designers.
We are now eagerly recruiting volunteers who will greet visitors at the new museum. Training will be provided. This would be a fun way to meet and gather with other people who care about history and heritage.
We're also looking for someone who can help us manage the new museum store. It would be great if the person has retail experience, but mostly it needs to be someone good with numbers.
If you are interested, please shoot me a note at wtneary@hotmail.com
