CHEERS to Harbor History Museum Curator Victoria Blackwell for giving the 9/11 beam a home in the lobby of the museum until a permanent home can be built at the Gig Harbor fire station on Kimball Drive. All are welcome to see the beautiful display for free from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday.
