Special thanks to the Community Foundation of the Fox River Valley for awarding the St. Charles History Museum a grant to fund our security cameras, which ensure our Museum Collection is safe and secure; our three hygrothermographs, which enable us to consistently monitor our Collection space; and for the UV-filtering film, which allows us to protect our artifacts from harmful UV-rays. We are so fortunate to have such a wonderful and generous foundation in the Fox River Valley.
