We may be packing up for an extended "dry dock" in November, but we are still open to receive donations of funds, securities, magic beans, and artefacts for when we reopen Bigger and Better than before. Today we received this great artefact transfer from the Vernon Museum of a gas mask. We have placed it temporarily in the case next to the embroidery created by Harry Warder while he was convalescing in hospital after surviving a gas attack in the Great War. Dig through your mancaves, excavate your basements and closets to see if there is something about your family's military history from the mid 1800s through the Mission in Afghanistan and see if there is something you might wish to pass on the story of those items.
