What's New in the Museum:
*We have some neat additions to the museum from the old BRADY HIGH SCHOOL! We were lucky to
have been able to preserve some of the historical items like the 1929 plaque and a trophy case from the
Class of 1967! We also have some National Geographic Magazines from as far back as 1935.
* In the Control Tower building, we have some prints from the Fred Bryant photo collection. The pictures
include the Enola Gay, Bockscar and several other planes that were a part of the bombings of Hiroshima
and Nagasaki.
* Another fascinating acquisition is one of the fence spotlights from the POW Camp, along with some doll
furniture that was crafted from apple crates by a prisoner!
Come by and see the history we have here in Brady!

Did you know.....................
** You are always welcome at our board meetings! We meet the 4th
Tuesday of every month (except December) at 5:30pm in the Curtis Field
Control Tower building.
** That the museum always welcomes items as gifts, but what if you just can't
part with it?? We can take it as a loan for as long as you wish, so it can
always be returned to your family for generations to come!
