Music at the Museum to be Rescheduled due to Meager Slide

The concession was ready to go, the performances organized and performers ready, and the stage set for a fun filled enjoyable day of live performances, but Music at the Museum wasn't to be.  The event was cancelled after the Meager slide caused all of Pemberton to be put on evacuation alert and many to be evacuated on Saturday.  Thankyou to all who helped in the preparation and who volunteered to help during the event.  The organizers plan to reschedule the event for later this month so stay tuned and be ready to enjoy live performances right here at the Pemberton Museum.
