A
B
We
take
care
of
all
those
things
and
we
create
exhibits
to
share
those
things
with
the
public
and
programs
to
teach
the
public
about
the
history
of
the
community,
and
I
think
that's
that's
pretty
much.
What
we
do.
The
funding
that
we
receive
from
the
city
goes
into
our
general
budget
and
we
use
that
to
pay
the
bills.
So
most
of
our
our
total
budget
is
about
ninety
thousand
dollars.
B
B
A
B
We
measure
our
success
a
couple
different
ways.
One
of
the
ways
is
through
attendance
numbers.
You
know
if
nobody's
coming,
then
we're
maybe
not
doing
what
people
want.
So
we
keep
track
of
our
attendance
very
carefully.
How
many
people
come
in?
How
many
people
do
we
go
out
to
and
over
the
last
five
years,
we've
more
than
quadrupled
our
attendance,
so
we've
really
increased,
who
we're
getting
to
one
of
the
things
that
we
that
we
changed
was
that
we're
going
out
to
a
lot
more
people?
B
You
know
some
people,
a
lot
of
people
come
to
the
museum,
but
there
are
some
people
who
can't,
and
there
are
some
situations
where
it's
better.
If
we
go
to
them,
so
we
go
to
a
lot
of
classrooms
and
during
the
winter
months
I
take
a
laptop
and
a
projector
and
I
go
to
nine
different
places,
care
facilities
and
nursing
homes
and
give
a
historic
presentation
every
month.
So
we
go
out
to
a
lot
more
people.
B
I
forgot
what
the
question
was.
The
question
was:
oh,
how
do
we
measure
our
success?
Okay,
so
we
measure
through
numbers
we
measure
through
our
membership.
You
know
we
get
memberships
from
people,
that's
one
way
that
we
fundraise.
So
we
try
to
ask
our
members
what
they're
looking
for
and,
if
they're
pleased
with
what
we're
doing,
and
we
also
every
once
in
a
while.
We
survey
people
online
and
let
people
give
their
their
feedback
that
way
and
also
in
the
guest
book.
B
Well,
I
think
history
is
always
important
and
especially
history
downtown.
You
know,
we've
been
talking
a
little
bit
about
the
downtown
lately
and
this
is
the
very
core
of
where
watertown
began
and
it's
kind
of
like
our
front
porch.
You
know
when
you
go
to
a
town
there
downtown
is
the.
Is
it's
the
it's
the
room
you
clean
really
fast.
B
Well,
we
have
a
lot
of
challenges.
You
know
running
a
non-profit
can
be
a
challenge.
Raising
funds
is
difficult.
Getting
people
up
the
front
stairs
is
difficult.
Maintaining
a
historic
building
can
be
a
challenge,
because
not
only
is
it
expensive,
but
also
there's
stuff
that
you
know
modern
day
contractors
don't
understand
and
finding
that
one
person
who
understands
tuck
pointing
and
how
to
fix
the
bricks
on
the
roof
to
make
it
work
right
so
that
we're
not
spending
money
for
nothing
is
can
be
a
challenge.
So
we
have
lots
of
challenges
but
really
they're.
B
Well,
you
know
as
a
historian
and
a
museum
director.
The
idea
is
not
that
we'll
have
a
museum
for
five
years
and
then
we'll
close
up
shop
and
go
away.
The
museum
is
the
long
haul,
like
in
my
imagination,
100
years
from
now.
All
this
stuff
still
exists
and
is
still
being
shared
or
used
to
teach
in
some
way.
So
so
our
vision
is
really
the
super
long
term.
You
know
you
don't
just
close
up
a
museum
and
then
open
up
another
one
20
years
from
now.
B
This
is
like
a
forever
thing,
and
so,
while
we're
still
thinking
of
new
exhibits
that
people
in
watertown
today
might
be
excited
about
and
trying
to
keep
fundraising,
to
keep
the
doors
open
and
trying
to
keep
all
these
things
going.
Our
our
real
vision
is
is
forever
long-term
to
keep
the
the
people
that
founded
this
town
remembered
as
well
as
the
people
that
are
here
today.
B
You
know
we
did
our
exhibit
last
year
called
made
in
watertown,
where
we
collected
all
the
things
that
are
currently
made
in
watertown
and
we
kept
a
few
of
them
and
we
kept
all
the
information.
So
I'm
thinking
100
years
from
now
somebody's
going
to
be
like.
Oh
my
gosh,
look
at
all
these
things
that
were
made
there
way
back
in
2017.
B
So
so
our
vision
is
long
term,
with
lots
of
short-term
goals
of
maintaining
and
and
and
creating
a
place
for
people
to
go.
One
study
showed
that
going
to
a
museum
can
lower
your
blood
pressure
and
make
you
happier
and
all
this
so
just
having
a
place
for
people
to
go,
and
you
know
we're
free.
So
if
you
want
to
come
to
the
museum
and
just
spend
some
time
thinking
about
the
world
before
you
were
in
it,
you
can
do
that.
B
That's
hard
one
thought
I
never
have
just
one
thought.
You
know
I'd
just
like
to
welcome
everybody
to
come.
I've
been
at
the
museum
for
six
years
and
people
still
come
in
and
they
say
I've
lived
here
for
25
years
and
never
been
in
this
building
or
30
years
or
how
many
people
who've
never
been
there.
You
know
just
encouraging
attendance,
you
never
know
what
you're
missing
and
we
have
a
lot
of
fun
stuff.
