The Historical Museum is planning to open soon. We are in need of volunteers to man the museum for a few hours on Saturdays and possible weekdays. We will be holding a training session in May or June. The only responsibilities will include opening and closing and possibly listening to great stories folks come in to share! You dont have to have extensive knowledge of Columbus either as we will have a book for people to write questions in and a member will get back to them! If you have a few extra hours and would be interested, please contact a Historical Society member!

Another sneak peak! Putting lots of finishing touches in before our grand opening!!
