Attica Museum January 1-2011 January 1-2012
Just a quick update on happening for the year. More people are finding out we have a Museum, and our donations are different as when we started. We are receiving more documents, old pictures, stamp books, and smaller items.
Attached is list of donations for the year.
Lee Dziekon donated interview tapes , of Sheldon Winslow, Alberta and Nester Coulter, Ruth Frese-Williams and Bob Somerville with Tom Megna, these were all VHS, so had CDs of each one. We have TV and player so we can show these when we have open houses.
Phil Madeline made shelf for all binder books, that have been made up from Historical Society. Much of information was just in boxes, now we have so you can look through. Such as, Obituaries, School Records from 1897-1907, Death notices, Homecoming records, Lake Pleasant, and many more.
Bob Gottschalk found software for Museum, and it has been installed, and now working on pictures, all have been indexed , working on putting in all pictures, from many years, this is a very slow, boring job, but about half done. Next will scan all pictures.
I think the big MUSEUM sign has helped everyone find us.
Any items you would like to loan or donate, to the Museum can be dropped off at Attica Township Hall, between 9:00AM and noon Monday through Friday or you can call Janet at 586 255-3108 and I will make arrangements to pick them up.
