Edmonds Historical Museum needs a truck for summer market work

Edmonds, WALocal News

The Edmonds Historical Museum has a critical need for a truck to facilitate its weekly Saturday summer market. The museum's current vehicle, over 40 years old, has broken down, creating significant logistical challenges for market setup and waste disposal. This truck is crucial for transporting barricades to intersections and hauling garbage containers. Community members are urged to donate a truck by reaching out to Museum Executive Director Arnie Lund via email. The summer market serves as an important platform for local vendors and fosters community engagement.

A new truck would not only aid the museum's operations but also enhance the overall experience for market attendees. Historically, the museum has been a cornerstone for local events, and this situation underscores its ongoing commitment to community service. Support from the public is vital for the museum to continue its mission and support local culture.
