Twenty-Five Attend Luncheon

Each spring the ACDM hosts an appreciation luncheon, combined with an orientation session, for all volunteers, both new and experienced.

This year it was held on May 19 in the Educational Building with approximately 25 in attendance. President David Therneau spoke briefly on the history, principles and purpose of the museum.  It was good for all of us to be reminded of our basic tenets.

Diana Hale, the museum’s officer manager, explained the duties and expectations of volunteers and board members.  Kathy Britt provided lovely and original table decorations which were presented to the newest volunteers following the luncheon.

Thanks to everyone for their various contributions to make this annual event something special.
