Can and Bottle Drive - Update
The Town of Webb Historical Association has had a great response to the can and bottle drive to raise money for the fuel fund at the Goodsell Museum. "We have been collecting $25 to $35 per week from donations of bottles and cans left at the museum" says Gail Murray, Director of the Historical Association which houses the Goodsell Museum.
"Donations of returnable cans and bottles are most welcome at the museum", Gail explains, "and a wooden bin is available in front of the museum to leave small numbers of returnables. Large bags of cans and bottles should be left on the porch or in the Ice House."
Such donations are much needed to support the museum, which houses the largest collection of Town of Webb historical memorabilia in the area.
Original Plans for the Thendara Golf Course Prints now available
The Town of Webb Historical Association is now selling prints of the original plans for the Thendara Golf Course. All monies raised will go to support operations at the association and the Goodsell Museum.
The prints show the original design of the Thendara course and are suitable for framing. They are available in two sizes and can be bought at Old Forge Hardware, the Thendara Golf Club and the Town of Webb Historical Association. Prices range from $15 for a small print in black & white to $275 for a large framed color print. Photo and additional information is available on our Items for Sale link.
Volunteers needed
The Town of Webb Historical Association is urgently seeking volunteers for a number of local projects. Anyone with 2 to 4 hours a week to spare is needed to help at the Goodsell Museum. Most projects are organizational in nature and can be done within the museum. A few projects require a volunteer to take charge of a small local fundraising campaign.
Please call the Goodsell Museum to volunteer your time at 315-369-3838.
