We'll be celebrating the 100th birthday of Lake Maurer next year with new displays, and we'd love for your family to be a part of it! Please share any photos you have of Lake Maurer -- gatherings at the pool, the skating rink, on the train or playing miniature golf, family reunions, business parties, baseball games -- we'd love to preserve those memories at the Museum. We don't have any photos of the annual Boy Scout campout and diving competitions! Attach .jpgs below or send them to our email (emuseum101@gmail.com.) We'd love to hear your memories -- post below!
The historic Woods Memorial Christian Church bell will be preserved by the Excelsior Springs Museum & Archives thanks to the congregants, including Joyce McKown, shown here presenting a check for $15,000 to Darryl Couts. We're working on a plan to build a new bell tower to house it and to make sure we can continue to share the history of church and its congregation today and in the future! We are so appreciative of these church members, even as we reflect with sadness about losing this historic church in our downtown.
Museum Lion in Winter: The Museum is now on its winter break, closed to the public in December and January. But the gift shop is open 24/7 on our website at www.esmuseum.com. If you need research help, please go to our website at www.esmuseum.com and look for the Research tab. Fill out the research form and pay via PayPal or credit card to get the research started -- depending, of course, on volunteer availability. We'll do our best!
The Museum is open today 11-4 with a 10% discount on all items in our gift shop, which includes T-shirts, ornaments, books and more! Find that special item for your loved one and support your local museum! Take a selfie amid local history!
