Oregon Jerusalem, Harbor View historical societies work together
Several thousand people visited the Harbor View Yacht Club Homecoming in recent weeks, including visitors from Canada.
The Oregon Jerusalem Historical Society accepted an offer from the Harbor View Museum to sell their book collection in conjunction with the homecoming.
“Despite the rain, we were surprised how many came to visit the book sale,” said Kathy Clark, OJHS curator. “We were very proud to have the Oregon Museum use our footprint to help with the sale of the book collection. Some of the books date to the 1800s,” said Mike Joseph, curator of the Harbor View Museum. “I think we can do other events together in the future. We all had a great time working together on this project.”
