A very well appointed museum with knowledgeable staff.
Small quaint museum. Not alot of info. Looked in the archives but most info is back in Kamloops.
Loved the old museum. I learned some cool little tidbits that were not in my Alberta Textbooks.
Truth be told, we stopped in Chase because of a traffic tie up on Hwy. #1. We came across the Chase Museum and we went in to check it out. It made me realize that, for as many times as we pass by little towns on our way to other destinations, we can very easily miss out on really interesting parts of the history of our Province. The museum may be small but it has a lot of really neat things to look at in history to read about. The curator Reese was very friendly and helpful. When we told him how we ended up there he even look up alternative driving routes for us on his computer. I'm really glad we ended up stopping there!
Fascinating museum, full of the town of Chase history. Many artifacts well preserved, and displayed beautifully. An old re stored homestead house which easily draws you back centuries, to a time before the areas popularity.
