The annual Show & Tell Gathering at the Bates County Museum has become a tradition and it will again be presented on Saturday, March 11, 2017 at 10:30 am in Robertson Hall at the Museum. The Show & Tell Gathering provides an opportunity for folks to bring beloved or curious objects from home to share with others. Sometimes, there are interesting stories to accompany the objects but other times, the objects themselves are a mystery and the audience is invited to help determine what they might be. It’s always a fascinating meeting and has become one of the most fun gatherings of the entire year.
The Bates County Historical Society & Museum will hold a brief annual meeting to review the past year and the 2017 schedule. We will also say goodbye to three Board members who have faithfully served the Society for the maximum allowed six years. As we say goodbye to President Stan Sechrest, Treasurer Alan Mundey, and Secretary Joyce Grainger, we will then welcome the new Directors.
At the conclusion of the program, a Freewill Donation Luncheon will be served. The menu is Soup/Chili, Crackers,Veggies, Dessert, and Drinks. The public is invited to attend and to participate in this wonderful annual meeting. All are encouraged to join us on March 11th. For further information please call the Museum at 660-679-0134.
