Meet the Plainsman staff

      Megan Sharp has been the director of the Plainsman since June of 2004. She is still considered a newcomer to this wonderful community. Her enthusiasm and dedication to her volunteers make the museum a great place to visit. She will always find time to make a visitor feel at home.

Gary Gustafson is the assistant director. In addition to a warm smile he brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to this position. Prior to working at the Plainsman, Gary was a librarian at the Northern Arizona University.

      With over 45 Hamilton County citizens donating their time and talents, the Plainsman Volunteers are the backbone of the Museum. These dedicated individuals do everything from Agricultural Building Hosts to Zinnia Planting! A few of the museum's 45 volunteers, seen above, were on their way to the Aurora town celebration parade. The Volunteers' float won 1st prize in the organizational division. Volunteers put in over 75 hours of work preparing the float for the parade. This was just one of the many projects that volunteers work on throughout the year.
