A Note From the Museum

Here’s one from the Update mailbag…

Hi Tim,

I wanted to pass along a note and give recognition to the Soroptomists for a kind deed done for the Historical Museum. Barbara and Gary Sharp along with Emily Reed-Geyman, planted a replacement tree on the museum grounds in memory of Museum founder and Soroptomist member Etta Egeland (1896-2002).

A flowering Cherry was planted in 2004 honoring Etta and in the last year the local deer population have been pretty rough on the tree. A Thunderhead Black Pine was chosen to replace the damaged tree and was recently planted in its place. We thank the Soroptomists for taking care of Etta’s tree and for all the good work they do in our community.
