Another sign that things are getting back to normal. Here is our first speaker series that we have a set date for. We are working on two more and will let you know when those dates are set.

Is it just me, or does this topic seem to be so relevant?

There will be no charge for non-members to attend this event. Doors open at 6:30.

As we reflect on the day that we now call 9/11 here are a couple of items we have in the museum. One is the front page of the Sentinel on September 12th. The other is a donation from Theodore Johnson, who as MAJ Theodore Johnson received this piece of the rubble from the Pentagon as a way to show gratitude to the work he did on Sept. 11-13, 2001.

If you would like to come and see these items the Centralia Area Historical Museum is open on Wednesday and Friday from 1pm to 4pm. Then on Saturday from 10am to 4pm
