            Thank-you to all who helped make our Bingo Fundraiser a success thanks to all of Garretson.

            The museum relies on fundraisers and donations to pay the bills. All our staff are volunteers and receive no compensation for their hard work.

            We had a very nice turnout and awarded half the ticket price back to the Bingo winners. We want to thank you for all the donations to support the museum and Sharon Kringen for supplying some nice “extra” prizes.

            We also received a $500 donation from the Doug Williamson Trust awarded by Leah Jones. Every year the trust supports local projects and great projects and we are honored to have been considered and awarded.

            A reminder- during the winter we are only open by reservation. You can call any member of the board (numbers on door of museum) and we will open for you or your group.

            We will be open for the Home Town Christmas Celebration (Dec 10th) starting at 10 AM, with hot coffee, cider and popcorn.
