Future Plans*The Kittitas County Historical Museum has plans to make this program self- <br />sustaining. <br />Due to the success of the advertising, the Museum's Board of Directors has <br />become educated about the rate of return of the advertising investment and <br />maintains a budget line of $2,500 to match any advertising or reach alternative <br />markets. <br />We have received an increased rate of donations to the museum as a result of <br />increased visitation to the museum, which rrre attribute to the current advertising <br />campaign.
