Highlights
So proud of all we are accomplishing, working on, planning towards at OMM. While the gallery exhibits have delayed opening into 2024, there is so much going on and so much in the works. Program activities/events ✅ Library reading room prep ✅ Education outreach and field trip prep ✅ Archives processing and organizing ✅ Research requests ✅ Quarterly newsletter ✅ Social media ✅ Monthly metrics ✅ Volunteer coordination and training ✅ Brand recognition ✅ Off-site tabling/activities ✅ Website updates ✅ LAMP (library archives multimedia photo) collection management ✅ Exhibit team involvement ✅ Event space coordinator ✅ Public relations ✅ Community outreach ✅ Getting full access wifi in whole building ✅ Working with our "Friends of" nonprofit from funding to mktg to events ✅ Working with our advisory council from funds to OMD coordination ✅ Tasks as assigned or fruited ;p ✅ No two weeks are the same. Push through the breaks, work with what and who you have, get creative and engage others, remember you are not alone, find the drive to get ahead of minutia, make the whole greater than the parts, learn and use your team warts, wonders and all, remember the process is as important as product, good days (hopefully) outnumber the bad, and that everything takes longer than you expected or originally allocated. If you haven't checked out OMM, find us, like us, share us, visit us (ps. we're free). We've got some pretty great stuff, stories and more!
Kicking off the opening of Oregon Military Museum's Historic Park, May 20 with Living History Day. Join OMM as a visitor, participant or volunteer. Openings for Park Volunteers Fridays & Saturdays. oregonmilitarymuseum.org
