Museum purchases flat file cabinets

In October, the Jefferson Valley Community Foundation generously granted a $4,000 gift to the Jefferson Valley Museum.

Archival safe flat file cabinets were purchased with the money. While it has taken this long for them to arrive, the delivery was an exciting day. Ron Hunt and Jerry Fleege rounded up a crew. After the delivery truck unloaded them at the Jardine Memorial Building, the packing had to be removed, the drawers removed and then several men carried each section out to the dolly that took them into the Barn and put them in place. Each drawer took at least two men to bring it into the display area and put it in the cabinet.

As the project proceeds to fill the safe with the maps, plats, surveys, and artwork, preservation will be at work and the Museum volunteers again Thank the JVCF for making it all possible.
