I’ve been lax in posting the visitors to the museum in the last month. Yesterday’s group was the Counts family. Gene brought his great aunt Arjanna, his mom Etta, and cousin Tim. Arjanna, who is 95 and a 1947 graduate of Bunker High, wanted to visit the Bunker Museum and the school. Arjanna remembered the old rock gym and playing volleyball. She and my mom were in the same class. It was a fun visit and I hope they enjoyed it.
Note: Arjanna is the youngest sister of Eugene Counts and her parents were Fred and Viola. Thank you Gene for bringing the family to visit. I got a pic as they were leaving.

Since I was looking at the 2007 book, Marilyn wrote this to go with the quilt raffle at the Bunker Centennial celebration. Our grandma(s) would have been proud of her for following in their quilting footsteps. Dina Martin Houston won the raffle and sent me the quilt pics.
