Sheboygan County Museum

So far this summer, we've held twelve lantern-making workshops at childcares and family events. We've learned that:

1) Kids love to draw their family.
2) Kids love living on the lake.
3) When given a choice, kids will select to be a monkey or a lion over most other animals.
4) "Pickle" might be a silly nickname (think Sheboygan Area Disc Golf's "Pickle Open") BUT it's definitely NOT the silliest!

Don't forget to join in the fun these next three Mondays at Vollrath Bowl Lantern Making & Parade!

A different kind of school moving day this morning. The Museum is honored to be able to preserve pieces of Urban history. Anyone recognize what that big, black piece might be?
