The first Territorial Days was in 1961 and was organized to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the Amboy Post Office
AMBOY – North Clark Historical Museum will present an exhibit featuring Territorial Days celebrations over the years. The first Territorial Days was in 1961 and was organized to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the Amboy Post Office. It was to be a one-time event, but was so well received, it has been held every year since that time, with the exception of 2020.
There will also be a Summer Book Blowout planned with plenty of used books for sale in the museum basement.
Quilt Raffle tickets will also be available for “Prairie Sampler,” a quilt made by the Chelatchie Quilters. This is the annual fundraiser to benefit the museum.
The Museum will be open on Sat., July 10 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Sat., July 24 from noon to 4 p.m. The address is 21416 NE 399th St., Amboy. The museum is wheelchair accessible and has air conditioning. Admission is free. Donations are welcome.
Plan a visit to North Clark County and view Territorial Days through the years.
