Fifteen students and five faculty members from Laramie’s Whiting High School came to the museum today to help us clean up the buildings and grounds in time for this weekend’s opening. They tackled every building with dusters, brooms, and shop vacs, and picked up everything from ancient Pepsi cans to a full mattress off the grounds. We couldn’t have done it without them.

Two students tackled the dust in the barn.
