Hello Museum Friends,
Today I get to share about one woman’s story of how she grew up playing baseball right on the grounds of the museum. It was so wonderful to hear such a personal memory of the museum and growing up in Winfield. What wonderful summer memories do you have of growing up in Cowley County?

Hello Museum Friends,
A couple of updates today. Firstly, the museum will be closed this Saturday in support of the opening of the Etzanoa Visitor’s Center in Arkansas City, as well as the open house at Observatory Hill here in Winfield. Secondly, the work on the kindergarten continues to progress, and if you really want to understand the work and the process check out Wright Floor Leveling’s brand new Youtube channel. Doug, will be documenting and explaining the work his company does, and has begun with our project. There is already one full video and one short that I found educational. Check them out here: https://www.youtube.com/

Hello Museum Friends,
For “National Repeat Day” I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for watching our page. I started this experiment to expand our social media outreach a little over a year ago. I also wanted to say thank you to all of you that have told me you enjoy the museum’s videos. Lastly, I wanted to ask what your favorite story or item we have talked about this past year.
