Winter Weather



Last week, Shelby County was hit with a snow storm. Over the course of two days, nearly five inches of snow fell on the county. The Shelby County Historical Society remained open for business despite the snow covered roads and chilling temperatures. Although the snow makes problems for motorists, it certainly makes the Ross Historical Center look beautiful.
Despite our best efforts at shoveling, our porch and sidewalks remained snow covered. The snow was falling too quickly for us to be able to keep up by shoveling and salting!
Our outdoor Christmas decorations are still up thanks to the weather making it difficult to get outside and take them down. The red and green colors certainly looks beautiful covered in the snow, though!






The Historical Society is currently working on setting up their Immigration Exhibit which will be toured by hundreds of area school children. Be sure to stop in during February to have a look!
