Headquartered in Kenosha Snap-on, Jockey continue to call Kenosha home
By Sandra Landen Machaj CORRESPONDENT
For at least the first half of the 1900s, Kenosha was known as a manufacturing city as many companies were established and built their manufacturing plants in or near the city. By the end of the 20th century most of these companies moved these manufacturing plants and their headquarters out of the area. Much of the manufacturing was moved out of the country to save on labor costs. Other companies, such as the American Motor Corporation went out of business But not every company that built its business in Kenosha abandoned the area. There are still some companies that started their journey in Kenosha, and while they may have moved the manufacturing divisions to other states and in some cases other countries, they continue to maintain their company’s headquarters in Kenosha. Two of these companies that continue to call Kenosha home are Snap-on Tools and Jockey International. The Snap-on story The company that today is known as Snap-on tools began as a socket wrench manufacturing company that was different from other socket wrench manufacturers of the time. Founded in Milwaukee by Joseph Johnson and William Seidemann in 1920, the company manufactured a set of 10 high-quality sockets that could be snapped onto five handles, which when combined provided 50 different tools. Because the entire
set was composed of just 15 pieces, their slogan became, “15 do the job of 50.” Snap-on Tools were not manufactured to be sold to the general public. These hand tools, air tools, and electric tools were designed for the professional mechanics, who keep all types of vehicles working. Since most mechanics are required to purchase their own tools, they wanted a quality tool that would last and Snap-on quickly became the company to provide that quality. Unique to Snap-on is its method of selling tools. Instead of being carried in stores, Snap-on brings the tools to the customers. Newton Tarble developed the idea of placing the tools in walk-in dealer vans, which would visit mechanics at their place of business. Many of the mechanics, especially early in their careers when money was tight, would purchase one or two of the tools at a time and pay for them on a weekly basis. As the dealer made his rounds with his van, he would collect the weekly payment. Although Snap-on tools are expensive compared to other brands, they are also considered among the most durable. Manufacturing plants opened in various cities, including Milwaukee, Elizabethton, Tenn., Murphy, N.C., and Natick, Mass. From 1975 until the plant’s closing in 2007 Snap-on also manufactured tools in Johnson City, Tenn. A most logical partnership for Snap-on is with the auto racing industry. In 1979 Snap-on began to

GMC Canyon isn’t your grandfather’s truck By Barbara & Bill Schaffer AUTO DIGEST
We had been driving the 2015 GMC Canyon pickup around town and on the freeway for two or three days when Barbara said, “I don’t feel like I’m in a truck!” Mostly that was because the GMC Canyon SLT interior is nicer and more comfortable inside than many of the cars we get to drive and partly because the Canyon wasn’t one of the humongous full-size pickups. New mid-size versions of the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon debuted last fall as 2015 models – they had been dropped from the GM lineup a couple of years earlier. The new trucks are not just a rehash of old models, instead GM designers and engineers learned from the global truck market and designed new GM trucks that are more rugged, efficient,
stylish, quiet and innovative. The two trucks make individual design statements; the Chevrolet and GMC trucks are alike in structure, but very different on the surface, each taking on strong family characteristics of their brand. The GMC Canyon has a more muscular look, or as GMC calls it – Professional Grade, while the Chevrolet Colorado is a sleeker, smoother design. The Canyon comes in three sizes, with two engines, two transmissions and rearor four-wheel drive. There is an Extended Cab version, with a six-foot, two-inch box; a Crew Cab with fivefoot, two-inch box and a Crew Cab with the six-foot, two-inch box. A six-foot, two-inch bed is long enough to carry an eight-foot long cargo without it hanging over the end of the tailgate. (No, sheets of plywood will not fit between
the wheel wells, but it’s easy to configure them above the wheel wells.) Both cab sizes serve a need with the Extended Cab rear area best suited for cargo and maybe an occasional passenger. The Crew Cab can easily carry a family or workers. By the tape measure, the fullsize GMC Sierra is about 14 to 17 inches longer than the equivalent mid-size Canyon. That might not seem like a big difference, but we noticed it in our garage. We could actually walk around the Canyon, but the Sierra required squeezing through or opening the garage door to get to the other side. The GMC Canyon has some nice extra features like steps on the rear corners to make access to the bed much easier and a tailgate designed to open softly without dropping and easier to raise. It can be easily removed and locked.
There is also an available spray-in bed liner for protection against scratching and rust. In addition, the top surfaces of the box edge have extra protection against scratching and denting. Our test truck was powered by the standard 200-hp 2.5-liter DOHC four-cylinder with a six-speed automatic transmission; it is also available with a six-speed manual transmission. The automatic transmission is equipped with auto grade braking which automatically downshifts during deceleration to take advantage of engine braking. It produces good acceleration, but tends to be a little noisy under full-throttle; however at highway speeds it’s mute. This is a very good engine for most driving, and with light loads. It has a 3,500-pound towing capacity in all the configurations. Fuel economy is 20
mpg city and 27 mpg highway for the two-wheel drive version and slightly less with four-wheel drive. Our rearwheel drive test truck averaged 23.4 mpg during our week of local driving. Bill drove the Canyon with the optional 305-hp, 3.6-liter DOHC V-6 engine and standard six-speed automatic transmission at the introduction last September and found it to be significantly more powerful, less noisy under full throttle acceleration and equally quiet on the highway. The V-6 engine also has a 3,500-lb. towing capacity, but it increases to 7,000 pounds when equipped with the Z82 trailering package. Fuel economy is 18/26 mpg for the two-wheel drive and 17/24 mpg for the FWD. The 2016 model will be offered with a 2.8-liter Duramax turbo diesel option and unofficially is expected to
break the 30 mpg fuel economy level. Engineers have designed in several aerodynamic features to help improve fuel economy including active aero shutters behind the grille to send air flowing around the truck when it’s not needed for cooling. They also included a deep front air dam, which can be easily removed for off road driving. There are several other air flow tweaks around the wheels, on the rear tailgate and in body gaps. The GMC pricing currently starts at $26,725 for the two-wheel drive Crew Cab Canyon base trim and goes to nearly $41,000 for a fully-loaded SLT 4WD, plus there is a long list of available dealer-installed accessories to customize the Canyon. And if someone wants the ultimate in plush pickups, there’s a Denali version in the works.

Unexpected expenses leave veteran in bind
Dear W.C., I served in the military for over eight years. I am disabled, but I do not let that hold me back. I completed school after my discharge but have not been successful in finding a job. I have two children whom I care for with the help of my mom. We live with my mom in her house. My wife left me while I was on active duty and she became an alcoholic. My mother cared for the children until I was discharged. My mom lives on Social Security, so we both contribute to household expenses and I pay all the children’s expenses. Right now we are having a hard time because my car broke down, and we had a few repairs we had to do on the house to get through the past winter. The furnace broke and then the refrigerator died. We had to use our money to get the furnace fixed right away or our pipes would have frozen and so would have we. Good thing our church had an old refrigerator they gave us. I could not afford to do the car repairs. Our utilities are also about to be disconnected. The pastor at our church told us about The Time Is Now to Help. I am not lazy. Even with my disability and pain (both knees were damaged while on active duty so I walk with a cane), I keep myself busy. I work around the house keeping it nice for my mom and the kids. I also do odd jobs and computer work for people when the opportunity arises. I would really like to get a full-time job that does not require me to stand all day. There has not been anyone willing to give me a chance when they find out I am a single father and disabled. Please consider my family for your assistance. Dear readers, Many veterans face difficulties when they are re-adjusting to civilian life, especially when they are disabled. We have helped many veterans through The
By
SAL DIMICELI Columnist
Time Is Now to Help over the years. We have always been an organization that helps our fellow Americans and that is especially true of the fellow Americans who served our country. In past columns we have shared the struggle of veterans suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder and disabilities. There are thousands of veterans in our country right now who are homeless and hurting. If they are lucky, they have a family or loved ones to help them through the transition period and move on with their civilian life. This veteran did not have much time to contemplate his recovery and rehabilitation. He was thrust right into fulltime parenthood after a painful divorce and discharge from the military. I decided to call the pastor he used as a reference. When I called the pastor for his insight into the situation, he shared with me that the family were active members in his church, helping at services, and the children attended Sunday school weekly. The pastor also said he had given the veteran father odd jobs when he could, helping set up the church website and social media, and computer repairs. He said the father always refused payment for his services, saying it was his gift to the church. The pastor said he found other ways to help him by dropping off food baskets or clothing for the children. The pastor said, “I know they are really struggling. He is a good son to his mother and an excellent father to his children. His mother shared with me that they did not have a refrigerator since theirs had
broken, so I gave them an old one a parishioner donated. She also told me their utilities were about to be disconnected, but we do not have the funds to help them with that. I told the father to contact you and I am so glad he did.” I called the family to set up a visit. The next day, I went to the address provided. A few seconds after ringing the doorbell it was answered by a man walking with a three-pronged cane. He shifted the cane to his opposite hand to shake my hand. He then held the door open for me to come inside. The house was older but seemed to be well kept. I noticed how clean the house was saying, “I hope you didn’t do all this cleaning just for me.” The father laughed and said, “No, no that would be my mom. She always keeps the house this clean, even with the two kids running around.” Just then the woman I assumed was his mother came in the room saying, “Are you talking about me and my cleaning again?” We all laughed and introduced ourselves. I asked about the children and what school they attended. We talked about their school and their progress. The father shared that both children had struggled and misbehaved while he was in the military. He was sure it was because of his ex-wife’s drinking and lack of structure in their lives. Then they had to adjust to moving in with their grandmother, all while he was still overseas. He had tears in his eyes when he said, “I feel so bad I wasn’t able to be here for them during that time. I wish they hadn’t had to see what they saw with their mother. Thank God my mom was here for them when I couldn’t be. She is my rock and theirs too.” He reached over and held his mother’s hand. His mother said, “You couldn’t be here, you were serving our country. I was able to take them in and remove them from that situation. They are good now, you know that.” They
told me about the progress the children had made and the huge improvement in their grades and behavior. I knew this was due to loving guidance and stability in their young lives again. We took a brief tour of the three-bedroom one-bathroom house. Every room was as neat as the living room and kitchen. The children shared a small room that was very neat and organized. When I commented on this, the grandmother said, “When they first moved in, they left their belongings everywhere. When I asked them what chores they had done while living with their mother they told me they didn’t do chores. They did not even know how to make a bed or empty a garbage can. When I went to pick them up from their mother’s house, it was a disaster. It was filthy with garbage laying everywhere, and it stunk. We have shown them that this is not how you should live. The kids told me last week that they love their room and like keeping it clean.” When we sat to talk again, I asked to see the bills and expenses I had asked them to have available when I visited. They showed me the receipt for the expensive furnace repair, the estimate for the car repairs and the utility disconnection notice. I noted the disconnection date was in three days. I looked at the refrigerator the pastor had given them and after inspection found it would not last for long and the freezer did not work properly. At least it had gotten them through the past month. I went through their budget and found it could work if they did not have any expensive emergencies but would be much better if the father was able to find a good job. When I commented on this, the father showed me his resume. After reading through his qualifications, I knew he
should have been able to get a job if someone was willing to give him a chance to prove himself. I knew a few people who just might be the kind of person to give him that chance. I offered to call them in his behalf and asked if he could send his resume to them. He was thrilled and said he would do it right away. While he was doing this, I put together a financial plan to get them through their next month. I arranged for their car to get repaired and stopped the disconnection of their utilities. I also set up the delivery of a refrigerator to replace the old one that was about to die. With each arrangement I made over the phone from their kitchen, I watched the look on the mother’s face. She kept putting her hand over her mouth and dabbing her eyes with tissues. When I finally completed all my phone calls, the mother said, “I can’t believe you just did that. You changed our whole lives all from your phone in a matter of minutes. How can we ever repay you?” I gave her a hug saying, “There is no need to repay me. A hug is all I need to feel recharged. All I’ve done for you today is possible due to the many people who support The Time Is Now to Help and care and share about their fellow Americans.” In the weeks that followed my visit, we continued to change the lives of this family. Their utilities were brought up to date and we paid some into the future to help their budget going forward. The new refrigerator was delivered and food was even added. The cost of fresh foods is a continuous comment I hear from the poverty stricken. Their car was repaired and now ready for the father to get to his job interviews and eventual employment. I received a call from the father the following
week to let me know he had gotten a job as a result of his sending his resume to several people I suggested. I did not let him know I already knew he was getting the job. The employer had contacted me as a reference on his resume and after discussing his abilities he had shared with me his excitement over hiring this veteran. He too was a veteran and wanted to give his fellow American veteran an opportunity. After our caring and sharing assistance, this family was able to move on independently, facing any financial obstacles thrown their way. The mother, children and veteran father all wrote a lovely letter thanking all of us together for saving them from an endless cycle of financial despair. Their heartfelt gratitude is shared with all of you. The assistance we have been providing and continue to provide has all been thanks to the Barnabas $55,000 matching grant and all of you who made this matching grant a success. We are excited to announce a new matching grant opportunity to begin immediately – the Paul Ziegler $15,000 matching grant. Every dollar you donate will be matched by Paul Ziegler, doubling your donation and desperately needed assistance. A big thank you and God bless you for making our mission of poverty relief a reality. Health and happiness, God bless everyone, W.C./Sal Please help: There are many coming to us in desperation. Our good fellow creations need our compassion. Together we make a big difference. Make checks payable to The Time Is Now to Help, P.O. Box 1, Lake Geneva, WI 53147.

The Kenosha County Board is expected to consider raises for county employees at its June 2 meeting. The meeting begins at 7:30 p.m. and will be held at the Administrative Building located at 1010 56th St. in Kenosha. During the last budgeting cycle, county administration put in enough money to give raises of 3.14 percent to county employees, at a total cost of more than $1.9 million. That was what the administration estimated that the results of the Segal Waters Consulting study might show. The study, which cost $170,000, looked at job descriptions and compared the pay and benefits for Kenosha County employees to that received by public and private employees in surrounding areas. Some areas included in the comparison were Racine, Waukesha counties and the cities of Kenosha and Racine. Two areas from Illinois were also included. The County Board has been discussing implementing the findings of the study soon. District 20 county supervisor John Poole said he would like to see increases wait until the 2016 budgeting cycle. In 2014, Kenosha county employees received a 1.5 percent raise. According to the results of
the study, the total raise for all county employees would be 2.76 percent or a total of just over $1.7 million, less than the anticipated 3.14 percent. The 2016 pay raise would be set at 1.16 percent, or another $734,050. Poole said that comparables for the public sector included the City of Waukegan and Lake County, both in Illinois. “People like to work in Lake County,” Poole said, “because pay is better there.” There are also some differences in benefits, particularly retirement. The large retirement benefits that Illinois has handed out for years are currently dragging that state down the financial tubes. The Illinois state constitution is written in such a way that the state is helpless to make changes to current pensions but will be able to make adjustments for new workers. Here at home Locally, many public sector employees receive raises based on the Consumer Price Index. Town of Salem administrator Pat Casey explained that, by law, raises for union employees is tied to the CPI and when the union negotiations are done, the non-union employees receive the same even though there is no statutory requirement. According to Salem Grade School administrator Dave
Milz, by law the raises that the School Board gives are tied to the CPI, union and non-union alike. Results of the study show that, comparing the public and private sector wages and excluding any bonuses, they are just about even. The average for Kenosha County public sector retirement contributions is $4,636, while the private is $4,708. Average health benefit costs for public and private are $14,388. Average base pay is $66,226 for public and $67,256 for private. Economic concerns Looking at national indicators, Poole is concerned that the country could be heading into another recession. “National employment is les than 60 percent,” Poole said. “And indicators like retail sales, factory new orders and wholesale orders have dropped.” With retail sales down, inventories are up. And Poole believes the County Board should pay close attention to signs the country could be heading into another recession. “I want to be fair to county employees,” Poole said, “and I still have to look out for the taxpayers.” Poole, along with several other county supervisors, said they would like to see employees receive a fair raise and stick to the CPI.

The Jockey story While Snap-on provides tools for a small segment of the population, Jockey, on the other hand, has something for everyone. The company began as a hosiery manufacturer in 1876 when Samuel T. Cooper of St. Joseph, Mich., sought to relieve the pain, blisters and infections that occurred on the feet of lumberjacks from their rough woolen socks. The company continued to manufacture a better sock under the brand Black Cat Hosiery and expanded from men’s socks to include socks for women and children. Cooper’s sons, Charles, Henry and Willis joined the company and in 1898 were instrumental in moving the company to Kenosha where it began to introduce men’s underwear. By 1902 the new manufacturing center in Kenosha was complete and White Cat underwear for men – basically a one-piece garment known as a union suit – made its appearance. This building is still in use as the Jockey Interna-
tional headquarters. Men’s undergarments began to change in the 1920s with the introduction of short legged and sleeveless underwear. They began to be marketed by being encased in a cellophane bag, the first time this type of packaging was used in the underwear trade. According to the history of Jockey International, in 1934 a major new product was designed due to the reception of a postcard with a man pictured on the French Riviera in a tight-fitting swimsuit. It was from this picture that the product known as the Jockey short was designed. The product was introduced at Marshall Field’s Department Store in Chicago where all 600 pairs were sold by noon. 12,000 more were sold in the following weeks making it the most popular men’s underwear of the time. In 1971 Coopers officially became Jockey and then in 1972 as Jockey International. New collections continued to be added to the company and today Jockey International provides underwear, hosiery, and sportswear for men, women and children. While Jockey does not manufacture its products in Kenosha there are two Jockey stores in the area. The Jockey Factory Store is at 5500 6th Ave., Kenosha, and a second store is in the Pleasant Prairie Outlet Mall.

It’s a mall world
I don’t go to the mall much. It hasn’t always been this way. I used to be an experienced and proficient shopper. Hobnobbing at the mall was one of my main talents and preferred hobbies. Then, I got out of the habit, I guess. Kind of like I did with running, except with running I never actually started. My change in retail routines had to do with kids. More specifically, the kids living at my house. After giving birth, I quickly realized taking rug rats to the mall is – in a word – a heck of a lot of work. My shrinking shopping skills can further be blamed on the Internet. Online shopping is just so darn convenient. You don’t need to drive or use gas or look for a parking spot or battle the crowds. And you don’t have to bring your kids. But I guess I already mentioned that. Whatever the reasons, I fell off the shopping mall matrix. I gave up even trying to go; stopped attempting to bend the spoon, you might say. There are times, however, when I must venture back onto the grid. When I do, I feel like a visitor to a foreign country who’s forgotten her

passport – and the dress code. Mall shoppers are trendy hipster fashionistas. They wear make-up, including lipstick. Their hair is combed and often contains styling product. I’m a mom in last year’s jeans, last year’s shoes and a purse from the last millennium. If I’m lucky I’ll have a half-used chapstick in my purse and my overall level of dishevelment varies from day to day. Mall shoppers linger over the costume jewelry display, leisurely stroll over to the perfume counter and contemplate where to eat lunch. I buzz in and out, grab the item I need and hope the perfume lady doesn’t spritz me in the face – again. I’ve got a bottle of water and generic fishy crackers in the car to snack on during the ride home. In my dimension, malls represent a world within a world. It’s one that’s both real and surreal. Free makeup samples, the food court, BOGO and finding the
perfect boots to go with your already perfect jeans. Perfect moms shopping with perfect kids. On the one hand, it’s too good to be true. On the other, it’s too perfect to be true. Some people are cut out to be mallies. I am no longer one of them. I’m simply not cool enough. Truly. Malls make me sweat. In addition, I don’t have the one necessity it takes to make the mall my regular weekend destination: money. Mall goers are in the business of shopping, which involves purchasing, which involves plastic, or in rare cases cash. A trendy hipster status comes at a price beyond having to wear lipstick and comb your hair. I used to pay it without even realizing. Then I fell off the mall-shopping grid and found myself with a lot more expendable money. Unfortunately that lasted about two minutes. (Remember, I have kids.)
When I do make a rare trip to the mall, I sadly fall into old patterns. I become aware of things I need that I didn’t know existed before my foray into the matrix. It’s crazy and embarrassing. And although walking away from a new purse, perfume or pair of boots is doable, it is often more difficult than I’d like to admit. While I yearn to be a trendy hipster fashionista, I’m not sure they exist. Perhaps it’s all a mirage. Everyone around me appears in their element, but it’s possible they’re just as thirsty and sweaty as me, and when they are at home they probably don’t even wear lipstick. The real me sort of hopes so. Jill Pertler is an awardwinning syndicated columnist, published playwright and author.

Museum ‘streets’ show times past By
Anne Trautner STAFF WRITER
A
red brick road runs through the center of the Geneva Lake Museum. Volunteers laid the bricks to create the thoroughfare, and volunteers painted the walls on the faux buildings that line the street. Volunteers also help run the museum, including Museum Director Karen Jo Walsh. Walsh’s volunteer work at the museum started with a phone call. After Walsh retired from her job as principal at the Chicago school she owned and operated, she called the museum because she wanted to donate some antiques from her Chicago school. The museum accepted the donations, and – after talking with museum volunteer Vern Magee – Walsh agreed to work on a display shelf at the museum. That shelf quickly became a room, which Walsh transformed in three days. “And then we just kept doing rooms,” Walsh said. Magee, who has been a museum volunteer
for 15 years, added, “It was a whirlwind.” Then the museum lost its director, so the museum board asked Walsh if she would consider being the interim director. “No, I don’t do interim, but I could be your director,” Walsh said. Walsh made the stipulation that she wanted to do the full-time job on a volunteer basis, and would not accept any pay. “I think it’s good because when you’re a volunteer person, then other people don’t mind giving one hour or two hours or a half a day to a cause,” Walsh said.
Museum history When the museum was founded in 1983, it was housed in a small building in downtown Lake Geneva. The museum quickly outgrew its 2,000 square feet, and in 2004 moved to its current location at 255 Mill St. in Lake Geneva. “With the old museum, we had run out of room and it wasn’t handicapped accessible,” said Helen Brandt, head curator for the museum. “Some of us had regrets, not exactly knowing what this building would be for us, because it was left quite a mess.” The new building, which had formerly
housed the Wisconsin Power and Light Company, was owned by the city. “We rent it for a dollar,” Walsh said. “We own nothing. The objects in here belong to the museum...we are called the stewards of our collection. We are only here as caretakers. It is our responsibility to take care of them for your children’s children, and so on.”
Volunteer workforce A volunteer board of directors oversees the museum. Other than two part-time paid employees, it is run by volunteers, and almost everything in the museum was put there by volunteers. To create the outdoors feel, volunteer Tom York cut down trees from his farm and brought them into the museum. The next day, Walsh talked to a group of volunteers. “You know how they have quilting parties, we’re having a leafing party,” Walsh told them. So a group of about eight ladies gathered for a leafing party. They sat with a tree lying on its side before them as they attached fallcolored leaves on the bare branches. “Volunteers help us do everything,” Walsh said.
They haul the rocks from nearby cornfields and strategically placed throughout the museum. They sew the clothes, hang curtains and do research. “We had volunteers who put this together, because we can’t afford to pay for all those different kinds of services, and I think then people become a part of the museum because it belongs to them. So it’s not just because we want their help, it’s like a family,” Walsh said. Hundreds of people – including electricians, plumbers and carpenters – have worked on the museum from time to time. Some help keep the place clean. People dust, vacuum and clean windows. Volunteers are all ages. Betty Less, who will be 90 in June, irons, mends, sews and labels items for the museum. High school students have logged countless hours working on service projects at the museum. Volunteers created videos, and even a model train set. “We love all our volunteers,” Walsh said.

joke with one another, Walsh said. One day, when a worker was on a ladder working on a wall, he said to Walsh, “Lady, don’t you have a stud on this wall?” Walsh grabbed his leg and said, “I found one.” “He almost fell off the ladder, but that is how it is around here,” Walsh said. “We have added a layer of laughter because we are all volunteering and it’s more fun to laugh and do something. “We want to have fun.” That message is sent subliminally throughout the museum. By one set of stairs, there is a railroad track near the handrail. “That way you can feel the rails,” Walsh said. A lady mannequin is located in the military room because she is a spy, Walsh said. “We are trying to make stories go with history because they become much more palatable and there’s more mystery.” And the museum volunteers try to make the building a place to enjoy each other’s company. “I think it’s a place to go,” Walsh said. “Everybody knows your name. It’s a very fellowship kind of feeling.”

More than 18,000 people came through the museum last year, Educational Consultant Marsha Engquist said. The museum is arranged by a timeline, starting with Native Americans in the area in 1831. “That way when people come in, especially the children, we try to get everyone to understand that the Native Americans were here before the other people,” Magee said. Like the other displays, volunteers created the wigwam that is exhibited at the museum’s entrance. All of the displays are user friendly, and people are encouraged to touch the items. “We are really big into touching and feeling because if you don’t touch history, it won’t touch you back,” Magee said. “We do museum tours, we do bus tours, we do individual tours, but what is fun is for anybody who comes, all ages, you can touch history and make it come alive,” Walsh said. On Tuesdays at 2 p.m. through May, the museum offers various workshops run by volunteers. There is a special exhibit entitled “Undressed” going down the middle of “Main Street” in the museum. The exhibit shows the history of women’s undergarments. “Undressed” will be displayed through Feb. 14, 2016. In addition, museum volunteers run the “Antique Road Share,” in which they bring objects from the past to senior centers, free of charge. “They can touch the objects and recall things from the past, and that generates memories for them,” Walsh said. “We always need more volunteers,” Magee said. “And we cherish the ones we have,” Walsh said.
