Long-time volunteer, museum founder, and WW2 radar veteran, the late Roy Taylor gives visitors a first-hand account of his experiences. Roy's story is integral to the Museum narrative. Even though he is no longer with us, his experiences live on through our exhibits and volunteer tour guides.


Gifts-in-Kind: a different way to give

As a small, not-for-profit museum, where every penny we raise goes into our operations and programming, we don't have much left over for anything else.  We can provide a tax receipt for your contribution if you or your company are able to support us with any of these gifts-in-kind:

  • Audit of our financial statements (high priority need)

Why an audit?  More and more private and public funders now make official external audits part of their grant/sponsorship requirements, but audits are expensive.  Without one, we can't apply for key funding, and without key funding, we can't afford an audit.  Can you help?

  • Staples Gift Cards;

  • Hand-held vacuum
