The Cole Camp Museum
does not charge a fee to come in and browse our exhibits
that detail the history of our quaint little town.
Instead, we rely on the graciousness of our visitors
to make donations as they enter
to help support our cause.
It would not be possible to keep our doors open
to the public without your kindness.
However, as with any organization,
we still have operational costs.
All of our workers are volunteers
so there are NO administrative costs
or salaries that need to be paid,
but there are operational costs for
lights so you can see,
water so we can clean the exhibits,
a phone so you can call us
to see that we are open or answer your questions,
insurance that protects the property,
security to protect the items on loan,
you understand, don't you?
