On Sunday, February 17th, Warrensburg's Museum of Local
History celebrated with an open house, exhibiting artifacts, photos,
clothing, tools, school items and documents from the past 200 years. The museum
plans to extend the exhibit through October of 2013. The exhibit is comprised
of nine categories, spanning from before the town was founded, through its
"golden age" in late 1800's and early 1900's, up to 2013. Residents have
graciously donated thousands of artifacts and photographs pertaining to
Warrensburg's unique history. The Warrensburg Historical Society and the Town
of Warrensburg have worked together to make the museum a success.
Museum Director Steve Parisi, along with his wife, Sandi
Parisi, the Warrensburg town historian, is currently putting together a book
chronicling Warrensburg's long history, which will be out in July or August of
2013.
