Description

Our vision is to have a place to centrally store and display our growing village's artifacts. Our book of over 100 years of the town's history as told through photographs is currently at the publishers. Taking the history to a spoken DVD slide show is the next challenge. Turning the caboose into more of a museum is another goal.

History

The organization began when the village was planning its centennial. The group published a booklet about the town's past and just kept going.
