Summer at HCHM

by Kristine Schmucker, HCHM Curator

The summer months have been busy with ‘behind-the-scenes’ activity at the museum.  A new exhibit, Towns of Harvey County will open on Sat., July 18.  Each of the seven towns in Harvey County is featured with a brief history, photos and artifacts.  This exhibit will be up for 8-10 years and is located in Harvey County Hall.

Myra has a sneak peak of the new exhibit.

We are looking forward to a second project at the first part of August.  For sometime the stairway to the Archives has been in need of attention.

Recently, Tracy Budde painted the walls and the first week of August the stairs will be refinished.
