History Awaits you in 2024!
The 2023 summer season proved a great success! Guests from as far away as the Netherlands, a visit from the Cascadia Airstream Caravan, a phenomenal youth history camp, numerous family reunions, and a large enthusiastic crowd of 4th of July visitors were just a few of the many 2023 season highlights.
Join us in May 2024 as we kick-off our exciting 65th season. Treasure hunts, self-guided tours, or just wandering around will provide a sense of amazement. We look forward to seeing you!
- Young visitors eagerly taking part in museum treasure hunt.
- Volunteers Sue Richard and Ellen Stevenson are all smiles welcoming visitors on the 4th
25-Year Museum Volunteer Announces Retirement
The EO Museum tips its hat in profound appreciation to volunteer extraordinaire, Mary Rider. For the past 23 years, she has served as the Saturday docent, treasurer, and strong supporter of the museum. Mary is a fourth-generation member of the Leonnig family, who came to Powder Valley in 1863. She grew up on a farm in Muddy Creek, earned her degree from Willamette University, and then lived and worked in Arizona. She returned to her home ranch upon retirement. We can’t thank Mary enough. Her one-of-a-kind commitment will be sorely missed by her fellow volunteers and the hundreds of guests who have had the pleasure of meeting her during their visit to the museum. THANK YOU, MARY!
