Museum history: The ROHM board met for the first time on July 12, 2015 at Marjorie Clark's home, then again August 14 when officers were elected. At a meeting at the City Hall on September 11th the bylaws were approved. Each of the board members donated funds to help pay the cost of becoming a non-profit organization. We also began working with the city of Rainier to acquire space in the City Hall to store archival material and for display.
