DUP HAPPENINGS

Many, many thanks to all those who supported our recent Arts and Treasures Sale. It was considered a great success. Thanks to those who contributed items and all those who attended and took home “treasures.” The home baked items were quite popular and were jigsaw puzzles, books and many household items. There were copies of  a cookbook that the First National Bank gave to its customers quite a few years ago. Proceeds from the cookbook sales will be used to pay for the security cameras.    Copies of the cookbook are available in the Museum.

Due to the recent vandalism, it has been decided that it will be necessary to install security cameras to the premises. This decision came with considerable sadness that such things are necessary in our community. When I was a child most people in Morgan didn't need to lock their homes and left the car keys in the ignition.  

It is the responsibility of the Daughters of Utah Pioneers to preserve and protect the history of our past in Morgan. That is taken very seriously. Our thanks to the donor who realized the need for these cameras and volunteered funds to help with the purchase and installation.

Although the cabin and museum are kept locked, anyone can make an appointment for an always free tour. We have many items that belonged to the early settlers of Morgan County – before it was named Morgan County – and are very willing to share stories about them. λ
