The perfect place to uncover the rough-and-tumble roots of this old frontier town, you'll find exhibits on everything from First Nations origins to colonial-era settlement and more recent social history. Look out for some arresting taxidermy and ask the volunteers if there are any archive images of Potato Jack, the cowboy-dressed spud who is the town's traditional mascot.
