Puzzles of the Past Second Friday of every month, 9 to 11 a.m.
The North PlatteValleyMuseum is continuing its Puzzles of the Past project in 2012. The purpose of the project is to use the power of “crowdsourcing” to identify old photos from times gone by. On the second Friday of every month, the museum hosts a photo identification get-together for anyone interested in helping solve these photo puzzles. Refreshments are provided. There will be new batches of photos each month along with previous ones that need another look by a new person, so repeat attendees and newcomers are both welcome. The photo identification project helps to improve the quality of the museum’s collection and provides a fun opportunity for socialization.
