Bring ‘em Home: Museum director makes fundraising pitch to community, provides updates

On Monday, April 29, the board of the Big Horn Basin Dinosaur and Geoscience Museum  [BHBDGM} convened to provide an update to the public on its project planning, development, and goal-setting. In a presentation led by Dr. Erik Kvale, President, the board walked through such particulars as the who, what, and why, and made their case for greater community outreach and involvement.
“We’re aware that there is donor fatigue in a small town like Greybull. When you’ve got a mental health crisis, when you’ve got kids who need medical assistance, it can be tough to ask for money,” said Kvale, noting that funding had recently stalled at around 40% of the original goal. “A hundred bucks is a fortune to some people, but […] if we got enough people together, we could maybe do something [great].”
