HISTORICAL SOCIETY
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The purpose of the Historical Society is to bring together people
who are interested in history and learning about the past,
especially in the history of Hinsdale County.
The Society's major function is to discover and collect material
which may help to establish, preserve or illustrate the history of
Hinsdale County. It will collect printed material, manuscript
material and museum material, as well as material objects
illustrative of life conditions, events and activities of the past or
the present.
The Society will promote and provide for the preservation of such
material and for its accessibility, as far as may be feasible, to all
who wish to examine or study it. It will cooperate with officials in
insuring the preservation and accessibility of the records and
archives of the county, and of its cities, town and institutions and
will undertake the preservation of historic buildings, monuments,
sites and markers.
The Society will disseminate historical information and arouse
interest in the past, by publishing historical material in the
newspapers, and using the media of radio and television, by
holding meetings, with pageants, addresses, lectures, papers and
discussions; and by marking historic buildings, sites and trails.
Meetings

the Museum building at 130 North Silver Street, corner of Silver and Second
Streets in Lake City. Everyone is invited to attend these meetings.
