Bethel Historical Society

Hello, my name is Kyle Stejskal and I am currently a Life Scout working towards the rank of Eagle.  Being a Bethel resident my entire life, I have always been intrigued by our town's history.  The Bethel Historical Society has a small museum space located at 40 Main Street, in Bethel, CT.   Presently, the museum has limited shelving and display cabinets for viewing artifacts from Bethel's past. 

For my Eagle Scout Service Project, I have designed four very large display cabinets and will be managing a team of volunteers and scouts to build the cabinets.   My goal is to preserve our town's history and to also showcase Bethel’s treasured memorabilia for years to come.  Currently, there are dozens of large plastic bins that contain artifacts unseen by the public.  This project will allow visitors to view and experience more of Bethel's historical past.  I will also be re-painting the museum room to spruce it up.

Any donation will help to make an impact and is greatly appreciated.  Please share this link with your friends and family members or anyone you think would be interested in preserving Bethel’s history.

If you decide to contribute, please note to select "other" under the TIP GOFUNDME SERVICES  then enter a dollar amount (example $1.00).  This is a fee that goes directly to the website and is not a part of the Donation for my Eagle project. 

Thank you in advance for your contribution.

If you would like to volunteer your expertise and time to help in the construction of the cabinets or help with painting the museum room, please contact the Bethel Historical Society at [phone redacted] or Marty Stejskal: [phone redacted] or [email redacted].

Yours in Scouting,
