Welcome to the first of a revamped Museum newsletter. We intend to publish four a year, as a general update on things pertaining to the Museum. We hope that this will be helpful, and we hope that it will encourage more involvement. We need Volunteers to keep the Museum open, and we need Friends to provide support without necessarily getting involved in the day-to-day activities of the Museum.
Contents: Camp 1009 Northway , Moving the Fairground, A Masters Student and museum employment by Graeme Kilgour, A Volunteer at Tewkesbury Museum by Mavis Wallis, Alley history, Framework knitting outing, “Priestley’s Progress: The Life of Sir Raymond Priestley, Antarctic Explorer, Scientist, Soldier, Academician” – book review.
In writing regular newsletters, it is difficult to separate genuine news from speculation about what might be happening soon. At the Museum, we’re on the cusp of a lot that might be happening! Some of this will be alluded to in the pieces about projects. We’re about to embark on interesting times, which we’re hoping will be a great blessing. There will be agreat deal to do over the coming years, and it will take determination and perseverance,and a lot of help from our friends.
