Santa CranesSanta Cranes Fundraiser a Success

The local community showed their support for the Hastings Museum by purchasing nearly $600 in Santa Cranes during the month of December.

The Hastings Museum Foundation teamed up with several local businesses to celebrate the holidays and raise funds for the Hastings Museum. During the month of December, these local merchants asked customers to donate a dollar to the Museum. “Santa Cranes” were then posted in the business for the month.

“We are very grateful to the community for remembering us during the busy holiday season,” said Drew Ceperley, director of marketing and membership for the museum. “And also to the area merchants for their support.”

Participating businesses in this Santa Crane Promotion were:

  • Allen’s of Hastings
  • Five Points Bank at all three Hastings locations
  • Graham Gallery
  • Runza Restaurants, all three Hastings locations
  • Uncle Neals Convenience Stores in 6 locations
  • Xpress Mart
  • Hair Dimensions in Edgar
  • Hastings Museum

The Hastings Museum wishes to thank each of these businesses for their support of the Hastings Museum.  All money raised will go towards education programs at the Hastings Museum, which serves 15,000 school children each year.
