Museum Closed through April 17th
Dear Friends of the Twin City Model Railroad Museum:
Our ongoing decisions continue to be made in accordance with recommendations and guidance from state and local public health officials and the Governor's Emergency Executive Orders. These are directed at slowing the spread of COVID-19
in the interest of the health and well-being of our visitors, volunteers and the local community.
We are extending the Museum closure plans through Friday April 17th , 2020. We’ve also made the decision to postpone the Spring Hobby Sale at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds from May 16th to June 27th. Facilities at the fairgrounds are
presently closed through May 10th and there is some uncertainty about their reopening plans.
We will hope to provide periodic updates via email, our website, and Facebook. We want to assure our larger community that we are continuing to look after the business of the Museum and to work hard at looking to our future by pursuing
all areas of disaster relief and other ongoing sources of financial support.
Please consider making a donation or pledge to help us meet our fixed operating costs during this critical period. 88% of our income is dependent on being open to the public, and over 50% of our expenses are facility costs. Our future
strength depends on increasing our current 12% donor support. Your help is needed to “Keep us on the Rails!”
Like us on Facebook and give as you can, online or via our website. Every future visit and gift is Important to us as we work together to survive this unprecedented crisis.
Keep Healthy; follow the guidelines, and stay tuned!
Respectfully
Oscar Lund
President
Twin City Model Railroad Museum
