Was that Gifford Pinchot at the East Linn Museum last week?
Well, not really, but Sweet Home Ranger District archeologist Tony Farque put on a believable performance as the first chief of the U.S. Forest Service in an appearance before 50-some people as part of the museum’s growing outreach program.
With some grant funds in hand, East Linn Museum Director Lana Holden is planning to expand programming for children and improve museum displays this year.
