"The Walter Elwood Museum is a gateway to learning using the past to illuminate the present. "
(part of the museum's mission statement)
There is nothing more precious than hearing the sound of children's joyous laughter as they are enjoying time together while learning something new. I am joined by the museum director, Ann Peconie, as she holds the free winter camp for school age kids this past February.
You can hear her as she teaches them about old fashioned writing and reads some of the letters that the presidents have written as well as other lessons in history.
I was also able to sit down to interview her so we could talk more about the museum and it's founder- educator, avid traveller, and Amsterdam, NY native Walter Elwood.
