Thanks to the generous donation from the local Rotary Club, the Hamsfork Museum is getting a fresh coat of paint.
Volunteers from the KHS Interact group, led by their fearless leader, president Camden Killian and sponsor Cynthia Platt, wielded brushes and rollers as they painted ceilings, hallways and bathrooms. Their efforts will be a huge help in the museum’s plans to open in a month.
Additional thanks goes to Chad Nielson and his crew from the City of Kemmerer for helping with things much too heavy for officials to manage. They moved the artifacts from the front door to the back, removing the flagpole in preparation for a new flagpole, removing the barrels and moving a very heavy piano.
A big thank you goes to those who supported our yard sale last month. Because of your generous donations, $450 was raised and will go toward the cost of paint and carpet.
The museum will have fresh, mountain spring water, thanks to Todd Moores’ Willow Springs. His donation of a dispenser and bottles will provide museum visitors with fresh water.
Students from around southwest Wyoming enrolled in Tech Trep Academy will be testing all day on Thursday, May 2. Tech Trep Academy is a tuition-free schooling option for families and is open to all Wyoming K-8 students and centered in Weston County School District No. 7. The museum is equipped with high-speed internet and routers throughout the building to serve the needs of anyone using the museum.
The museum will eventually have iPads for visitors to use so that they might take self-guided tours if they would like. The iPads will have additional information about the museum and its artifacts. Thanks to Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office and Lincoln County Sheriff Shane Johnson for donating these older iPads.
