👋 Many guests visited the museum over the 4th of July weekend to view the exhibits, including Bill and Kelly Harvey, who came to see the items from the time capsule. They both attend the Time Capsule unveiling on Thursday. Bill was one of the special guests representing the Wakulla High Class of '76, and Kelly wore a festive retro outfit she got from her grandparents' iconic country store, Linzy's (where Walmart is currently), from 1976!

Thanks for stopping by and being part of our history!
