Enumclaw Plateau Historical Society and Museum
The Enumclaw Plateau Historical Society is an organization dedicated to preserving, collecting, and documenting material relating to the history of the Enumclaw area. The 1909 building pictured above houses the best collection from and about our area's past. In 2005, the Society opened the museum to exhibit artifacts, books, family histories, and an extensive collection of early photographs. These resources were enhanced in 2013 with the addition of the Pioneer Collection, previously housed in the library. The volunteer staff are very helpful in answering your questions and directing you to the resources most relevant to your search. The museum is located at 1837 Marion Street and is open Sundays and Thursdays from 1 to 4 pm.
The current officers of the Enumclaw Plateau Historical Society are Ron Tyler, president; Patricia Shepard, vice-president; treasurer, Robert Stygar; and secretary, Sue Smith. Also serving on the board of directors are Lawton Case, Daryl McCauley, Reid Peterson, Barbara Shane, Nollen Smith, and David Strous.

Our lucky day for pursuing history: Ron Tyler, president of the Enumclaw Plateau Historical Society, and Reid Peterson, from the society's Board of Directors, were on duty when we stopped at the museum this afternoon. So John was able to get some answers to questions that have come up about Enumclaw's history, as well as access a few images from the extensive photo collection there. And then Ann Gibson from Buckley's Foothills Historical Society Museum came in and we met her and decided we need to spend some time at that museum as well. (Pictures of these folks and some from inside the museum have been added above.) We also got a copy of the society's 2013 Winter newsletter, LINKS, which features Enumclaw's Centennial, and bought some Centennial Calendars. It's January 3 and we've started "celebrating". Hope you will, too. A visit to the museum is a good place to start. Well, John's history blog is a good place to start, but the info and links here and in subsequent postings will take you in many directions. So much to learn about Enumclaw--share with us all what you find!
