MOWER COUNTY FAIR – TELEPHONE MUSEUM 

Again this year Hiawathaland Pioneers staffed the Communication Museum on the Mower County fairgrounds during the annual County Fair. 

Brian Beckstrand is Chairperson for the Hiawathaland Museum Committee.  He and Jerry Wesley, former Chairperson, had been busy in the weeks leading up to the fair.   They moved some displays and condensed some exhibits. 

Inez Rogers lined up a great group of hosts and hostesses so there was always a Pioneers available during fair hours to greet people touring the museum and answer questions or explain displays. 

                                    THANK YOU TO THE VOLUNTEER
