How Can I Help Support the Cowan Railroad Museum?

As a totally volunteer effort, the Cowan Railroad Museum greatly appreciates your support in many fashions:

1. Become a member.  The annual dues of $10 is a small amount to spend out of your pocket, but goes a long way towards covering regular expenses incurred by the museum.  Lifetime memberships are also available for $100.
   
   
2. Be a tour guide.  Help us keep the museum open to the public by volunteering as a guide.  With more people, we can extend the hours we are open.
   
   
3. Former employee plaques.  Do you have an ancestor that worked for the railroad?  Honor them by purchasing a brass plaque for $50 with their name and service dates.
   
   
4. Donate railroad items.  Memorabilia from the railroads needs to be preserved for future generations.  Don’t let items waste away in your attic or basement.
   
   
5. Join a work crew.   Whether on the HO scale layouts, or prototype equipment, volunteers are needed to keep these artifacts in top shape. Volunteer to help out!
   
   
6. And of course, donations of any amount are always appreciated!
