Thank you to the Pocahontas County Supervisors for their Support!

We will speak to  the Pocahontas County Supervisors soon to thank them for their support and to let them know what we accomplished in 2015. Since a picture is worth a thousand words, we put together these photos for our presentation.

Organization and Display 

 
What happened when we had to empty out the basement 
to put in a drainage system?  
We made a mess, and then we took advantage of the mess.
 All of those historical documents and artifacts are now organized.
