Past technology items needed for Museum of Civilization!

Good morning PCCLD, 

 

As you know, NEA Big Read All Pueblo Reads is kicking off next Friday, Oct. 6 with the Civilization Celebration Family Fun Fest! It is taking place at Rawlings from 6-7:30 p.m. We are putting together a "Museum of Civilization" of technology from the past for folks to reminisce and play with. We are looking for items you may have at home that we can borrow for this display. Below is a list of categories/items we're hoping to show off. If you have any of these items or similar that you would be willing to let us borrow, please let me know. Items are needed by Thursday, Oct. 5. I am happy to pick items up from your library if you are not at Rawlings!
