As I write this article I am sitting here, with the fan blowing on me, thankful that we are almost at the end of a very hot summer in Ridgecrest. Hoping it cools down soon! Courageous volunteers making our museum better, in spite of the heat, include Charlie May, with help from Greg Winters and Bob Tyszka, in totally rehabbing the auxiliary trailer. Scott Millett, Art Hickle, Bob Smith, Charlie May and Wayne Doucette installed shade cover at the overhead trellis to make the area cooler and help out with utility bills. Bob Campbell and a huge team put on a successful Dinner Auction on May which netted over $96,000 in profit that goes towards operation costs. Mark May 11, 2019 on your calendar for next year’s auction and start identifying your donations now.
We will be participating in the Parade of 1000 Flags on September 8 and could use walkers and float decorators. Check inside for information about our upcoming 75th/25th Anniversary Dinner Gala on November 10, 2018

Brick Special
Purchase an 8x8 brick for $250 and get a 4x8 for $25
Sponsor a Veteran Brick for $25
When you purchase an 8x8 Brick for $250 starting on Patriot’s Day – 9/11 until Veterans day – 11/11; you can sponsor a Veterans Brick (4x8 Brick) for an additional $25. Show a Veteran or active duty member that you support their service and remember them everyday with a brick in their honor at our museum.
Proceeds from the brick fundraiser will be used to build new displays and continue our Phase 2 project. We are beginning the permanent display feature for the bricks. Keep an eye out for this new outdoor feature.
