Today we said goodbye to our President, Dylan Jones (left), and welcomed our new President, Ed Duke (middle). Also pictured is fellow Board Member, Scott Davis, who is one of the hardest working men you’d ever meet.

Dylan has chosen a new career path following his passion, which has also resulted in him having to relocate out of Meridian.

Dylan had this to say during his final days with us, “I grew up in this Museum. I’ve been coming here with my parents and grand parents since around age 5, this old building has been my home. It’s where all of my friends and mentors have been my whole life. I’ll admit that I’m saddened to leave since this place has literally be my second home, but I’m confident that Ed and the rest of the Board will continue the progress we’ve worked hard on these last 8 months. I appreciate everyone in this community that supported our efforts during my time here. I’ll never forget the memories we’ve made. Please, continue to support our museum.”

As Dylan said his goodbyes today, Ed and Scott went right back to work installing the new interior LED lights that YOU, our supporters, helped us purchase. One of the few projects Dylan and the gang worked tirelessly to raise funds for will finally be finished for our community to enjoy.
