We are grateful for all your help, donations, enthusiasm, and memberships. It is vital to preserve our history for future generations. Funds collected through the generosity of those who respond to memberships and donations are crucial in covering CLFHA operating expenses. The minimum $5 amount required to be a member is important for several reasons:
Members are the heart and soul of CLFHA
Your membership helps us support, maintain, and educate our visitors about Barton's history
Your membership supports the CLFHA's mission to preserve the rich history of Barton through maintenance of the Pierce House Museum, its historical artifacts, and the Brick Kingdom Trail. Your membership also supports the creation of educational programs for students in the area.
CLFHA membership numbers are noted by outside grant-issuing organizations. Sometimes the grant approval process requires proof that the community at large is supportive and committed to the goals of CLFHA.
We also welcome any suggestions as to exhibits that you would like to see in the future. We also send out a yearly newsletter for our members. Submissions for the newsletter would also be welcome. Many people have shared their own stories and memories of growing up in Barton which we have included in our newsletters. Submissions can be made through bartonclfha@gmailcom. In the heading of the email please type "Newsletter Submission".
Members also receive a membership renewal form and envelope along with the newsletter for their convenience. If you are a current member, and we have not received your membership dues for the current year, please don't forget to renew. Also, if you are not a current member, you can click on the link to the CLFHA Membership (view only) Google Form below to print, fill out, and mail.
