Goodbye 2013... and Hello to 2014

What a year 2013 has been. We at the Sawmill Museum have done our best to provide the community with fun and interesting activities and a memorable museum experience.

We extend a special thank you to those who helped us accomplish our goals.

The new year has some exciting things in store for the museum. January has several events coming up quickly. On Saturday, January 4 from 1 to 3 p.m., museum-goers can learn to make ice cream with just a few ingredients. Which will be colder, your homemade ice cream, or the cold January temperature?

Then on Sunday, January 5, starting at 1:30pm, our vintage sawmill will be up and running. Our sawyers will be making some interesting cuts.

On Tuesday, January 7, from 5pm-7pm, there will be a special reception for Lyons Middle School's art projects.

The following Saturday, January 11, from 1 to 3 p.m. is Wacky Science Day. A few hands on experiments and some demonstrations of some cool science themed projects.

Saturday, January 18, from 1 to 3 p.m. is Be an Engineer Day. We'll provide the wood, but what you make from it is completely up to you. Let's see what you can do!

Saturday, January 25, from 1 to 3 p.m. is National Opposite Day. Join us for a day filled with crafts that require flips and flops, twists and turns, and mirrors and reflections to design.

As we welcome the new year, keep in mind that a family membership to the museum is only 50 dollars per family, for up to six people for a full year.

All programs are free with a paid admission to the museum.
