Membership
The Coles County Historical Society depends on your help and contributions to achieve the purpose stated in its slogan, “Preserving Yesterday for Tomorrow”. To involve both children and adults in developing an understanding of our county’s history through use of its programs, exhibits, artifacts and archives is a difficult challenge for the Society. It needs help by you becoming a member, making financial contributions, and/or helping as a volunteer.
