CCHM names new visitor services coordinator
Karen Washabaugh has been
named as visitor services coordinator at
the Clark County Historical Museum
Washabaugh
(CCHM).
Washabaugh has volunteered at
the museum since 2005. Previously
she worked as medical records manager for the Vancouver Clinic. She
has a master’s in business and is the
national past president of the Marine
Corps League Auxiliary.
Washabaugh replaces Lisa M.

Washabaugh joins Eileen Fitzsimons, visitor services assistant at
CCHM, who was hired in February.
Fitzsimons has bachelor’s degrees in
art and history from Portland State
University. Before joining the CCHM,
Fitzsimons conducted historic preservation research for clients. She also
is a freelance writer for The Bee, a
monthly community newspaper in the
Sellwood area of Portland.
CCHM also bids farewell to Jessica Clark, visitor services receptionist, who recently left after about two
and a half years with CCHM to study
business at York College of Pennsylvania. Clark’s permanent replacement is to be named.

Clark County Historical Museum’s
vast photo collection will become more
accessible in September thanks to a
$27,140 Clark County Historical Promotion Grant. Thousands of historic
images will be digitized, the first phase
of which currently is being completed.
Robert Schimelpfenig, a Washington State University Vancouver archive
specialist, has been working on the
six-month project since February
2009. He recently completed scanning 5,200 images, which also are
catalogued and uploaded to WSU Pullman’s digital archive server. The twofold project also stores high-resolution
images of the museum’s collection for
preservation.
The project comprises about 25 percent of the estimated 15,000 images
and 2,000 glass-plate negatives in the
CCHM collection.
“This is the largest
project that I have ever
worked on,”
Schimelpfenig said.
“When it is done, it’ll be
a low-resolution,
searchable database on
the Internet. It’ll open a
lot of possibilities for the
public use, once the
images are accessible
online.”

CCHM wins WMA award for Boomer! and individual excellence
The Clark County Historical
Museum Boomer! exhibit won
one of two awards of excellence recently presented by
the Washington Museum Association (WMA).
The museum’s Boomer!
exhibit won the 2009 Award of
Exhibit Excellence for establishing a high standard of innovation and creativity in all
phases of exhibit concept,
content, design and production.
This exhibit was chosen
because it demonstrates leadership in the areas of quality
design, creative interpretation
and reassessment of collecting practices and represents
an elevated level of achievement.
Boomer! explores how the
baby boom generation transformed American culture. The
exhibit has been so popular
that the museum extended its
run through the end of the
year. Leah Jackson was
exhibit curator; Sam
Mackenzie was the graphic
artist; Marie Naughton wrote
the interpretive panels. Techjet Imaging printed the exhibit
banners and interpretive panels.
The second award
for individual
excellence
was presented to
CCHM volSusan Tissot
unteer Karen
Washabaugh for undertaking
the challenging task of updating the WMA mailing list and
contact information for the
purpose of conducting a statewide museum survey.
Both awards were presented
to Susan Tissot, the museum’s executive director, at
the WMA’s annual conference
in Pullman, Wa., in June. WMA
presents only one award in
each category. This is the first
time the museum has been
recognized for these two categories.
WMA awards are prestigious
and presented by colleagues
in a statewide meeting of museum professionals.
CCHM was previously honored by WMA in 2005 with the
Award of Publication Excellence for Woven History: Native American Basketry, a 98page full-color book featuring
the museum’s basket collection.
Boomer! generation speaks: exhibit extended through 2009
From the sexual revolution
to Viagra, the baby boom
generation has never been
shy about telling the world
what’s on its mind.
Clark County Historical
Museum staff listened to
boomers and extended the
run of its Boomer! exhibit
through 2009 due to popular
demand.
“Baby boomer” is a term
commonly used to describe
the 76 million people born
between 1946 and 1964.
The Boomer! exhibit, exploring the ways the baby
boom generation transformed American culture,
places particular emphasis
on Southwest Washington.
The museum recently
hosted a First Thursday lec-
ture series featuring baby
boomer Carl “Cubby”
O’Brien, a former Walt Disney Mouseketeer, as part of
its extension of the exhibit.
Nearly 200 people attended
the August lecture.
The exhibit originally was
scheduled to close at the
end of April 2009. It now will
run through December
2009.
Mr. Carnegie’s Grand Tour is the classic family car trip - with a twist
Whether pioneers trekking
on the Oregon Trail or suburbanites in the family minivan,
Americans have always
heeded the call of the open

it in the legacy of 19th-century

Federal stimulus money generates a good cleaning in collections area
Many hands make light
work and thanks to some
federal funding, Clark
County Historical Museum
has been able to do some
much-needed cleaning in
the collections area of the
building.
The money, from the 2009
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, helped fund
an Educational Service District 112 (ESD 112) Summer
Youth Program. The program paid the salaries of 17year-olds Tia Beecher and
Alyssa Henderson, both of
Vancouver, to work part
time cleaning and reorganizing the collections
area of the museum.
“The girls are very hard
workers,” said staff member
Eileen Fitzsimons who
oversaw the project.
“They’ve consolidated
collection pieces and
now we know our
strengths and gaps in
the collection.”
Volunteer Larry Sickles also helped steer
the project working with
the girls one day a
week.

museum through the end
August. They both plan to

Gail Spolar, director of the
youth work force for ESD
112, said Clark, Cowlitz and
Wahkiakum counties received a total of $2.1 million
federal dollars that was split
between seven providers in
the three counties. About
700 people were employed
by the program.
CLG grant update: education kits to be tested in the class room CCHM exhibited
Clark County Historical
Museum held a Hands-On
History workshop in July
for local teachers on how
to use authentic artifacts to
teach social history, economics, local and world
history and science in the
classroom.
Teachers Janet Dondelinger, of Pioneer Elementary School in Evergreen School District, and
S. Tyler Morgan, of
Camas High School, who
have developed prototype
education kits using artifacts found at the Vancou-
ver Convention Center site,
presented their work.
The pair has been working on the project since late
2008. It is funded by a
$10,000 Certified Local
Government grant from the
Washington Department of
Archaeology and Historic
Preservation and Clark
County to develop a curriculum and prototype educational kits for use in
grade 4-12 classrooms in
the Southwest Washington
area.
The project relates to
regional history between
1870 and 1920 and features non-culturally sensitive materials excavated
during construction of the
downtown Vancouver Convention/Hilton Hotel, which
opened in 2005.
Dondelinger and Morgan
expect to begin testing the
archaeological education
kits in their classrooms
this fall.
Teachers who attended
the Hands-On History
workshop received clock
hours for their participation.
