 program or live music in 2021, we all look forward to bringing back these elements in 2022.

<p class="MsoNormal">This year we will not charge a set admission price, instead we are asking for admission by donation.  We know that 2020 was hard on a lot of our friends and neighbors and we don’t want an admission price to be a barrier for folks who want
 the attend the event.  Donations collected support the activities of the Friends of the Historical Museum and the Rocky Mountain Museum of Military History.<o:p></o:p></p>
