Go to Hanford Mills Museum Sept. 7 from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. for Metal at the Mill Exploration Day. The day will feature the Dan Rion Memorial Antique Engine Jamboree, and the museum has invited regional collectors of historic engines, tractors, doodlebugs, outboard motors, vehicles, and other machines to display their collections. Hanford Mills staff and volunteers will also display and demonstrate some of the historic engines and machinery that are in their own collection.
