Ames History Museum

We hope you will join us for a tour of AHM for our class on Thursday morning, September 24th.
We would like to give a gift from our class so that the museum can continue to inform Ames
history through a variety of educational efforts.
Here are two ways you could help if you feel so inspired:

  1. Write a check to the Ames History Museum (noting that you’re in the Class of 1966)
    and send or give to Mary Involdstad (1508 Stonebrooke Rd., Ames 50010).
  2. Donate directly online to the Ames History Museum.
    (https://ameshistory.org/content/donate-museum). If you choose this option be sure
    to include the year of your AHS class because…
    Monies collected will go towards a special Ames High Exhibit case in the museum lobby. This
    display will change every six months and will highlight artifacts that represent a past school
    activity, such as a musical or drama production, an athletic contest or any other significant
    event. The name of each class contributing $5000 or more will be placed on a plaque near the
    exhibit.
    The Class of 1955 is the first to lead the effort with a $5000 donation!
