LOGO CONTEST Miami County Historical Museum is in need of a logo. Something that represents us as an organization and the county. We have a rich heritage in this county dating back to the civil war and on back to the early days of the Indian settlements. A logo for the museum that represents our past would be great. It can be as simple or as elaborate as you want. The contest will go on until the end of Jan uary 2021. The winner will be chosen by the board of directors of the museum and it will be announced in February. The winner will receive a one year free membership to the museum. This allows them to do family history study in our genealogical library at half price and they will receive the museum newsletter for free. Please submit your logos by email, mail, or dropping them off at the museum.
