2025 WHS Annual Meeting On November 9

The Winslow Historical Society (WHS) will host its 2025 Annual Meeting on Sunday, November 9, from 2 to 4 pm at the Winslow Visitors Center/Hubbell Trading Post, 523 West Second Street.

The free event will begin at 2 pm with refreshments and a Route 66 storytelling program presented by Lara Helmling (above, Route 66 through downtown Winslow in 1958). 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; order the 2026 calendar, 100 Years of Route 66 in Winslow; and have a chance to win terrific door prizes donated by the OTM Store, La Posada Hotel, the Winslow Chamber of Commerce, and others.

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!
