Museum Activities
Winter Schedule — We’re Open, Just Call Ahead, Please
During the winter, the Logging Museum is open by appointment from December through March. We do this for two reasons — safety on snowy roads for our visitors and docents, and to minimize the cost of heating the museum when visitors are few. We look forward to showing you the museum (winter is beautiful at 4000 feet), but please call ahead (209-795-1226) so we can turn up the thermostat.
Logging Jamboree, Labor Day Weekend (Joni Morris concert included) August 30 and 31, 2008
Labor Day Weekend brings the 13th Annual Logging Jamboree at the Museum. Of course, Labor Day Weekend this year means the end of August. Join us for two days of festivities and fun, watch working loggers tossing axes, wrestling two-man saws, and ripping through logs with roaring chainsaws. A very special attraction for this year will be having a concert by Joni Morris included in the very minimal price of admission to the Jamboree. Tours of the museum and our 1920 Shay steam locomotive are on tap as well as new events that may involve you in the jamboree’s logging competition. The 2007 Jamboree set new records for attendance and fun; join us as we deliver more in 2008!
