  • WSHS Museum & Visitors Center
    to close September 30, 2009

    After much discussion and exploration of options, the Board of WSHS Officers voted to close the present location of the Society's Museum & Visitors Center on Sept. 30, 2009.

    All historical materials will be inventoried, packed according to specific archival procedures and stored. The Society will continue to meet as needed and plan more outreach exhibits and community events such as participating in the October 3rd Neighbors Fair at the Riverwalk Park and the San Pedro Park "Show & Tell" Day on October 24, 2009.

    There was a Celebration of the Society’s 16th Anniversary on September 27, 2009 at the Museum. This was the final event in the 3rd Street building. See photos of the event
