The WHS Annual Meeting will begin at 2:45 pm and include the election of new Board members and brief reports on museum activities over the past year. While there, attendees can join or renew their annual WHS memberships; buy the 2024 calendar, This Month in Winslow; and have a chance to win terrific door prizes donated by La Posada Hotel, Motor Palace Mercantile, the OTM Store, and more.

The Old Trails Museum extends a special invitation to anyone interested in becoming an OTM Volunteer. If you love history, please consider attending the Annual Meeting and talking with current volunteers about their experiences hosting visitors or working in collections. In doing so, they learn more about their home and its history, and they talk with visitors from all over the country and world, serving as ambassadors for the museum, for Winslow, and for Historic Route 66.

The Winslow Historical Society’s annual celebration of its membership is a reflection of the Old Trails Museum’s community support and the backbone of its grassroots fundraising efforts. With you, we have a future; without you, we’re history!
