Local historical societies in small cities and towns across the country often get overlooked by all but the savviest travelers, but for those interested in learning about an area’s history, they’re great community resources that should be taken advantage of.The Hawthorne Historical Society Museum was established as a not-for-profit organization in 2011. Since then, it has been preserving and highlighting the city’s unique past.The Museum is located in Jim Thorpe Park on Prairie Avenue and includes a small but impressive collection of local historical memorabilia.The facility has limited hours, so check online or give them a call before heading over.

OMG, Im such a little kid when it comes to nostalgia, I want to get as much as I can at one time. I will have to visit at least 10 times to get it all in. Then do it all over again
