Working in Cowlitz County |
|
February ' November 2010:
How have the people of Cowlitz county made their living over the past 150 years,
and how is that changing?
This is the focus of a new exhibit on work that will be featured in
the museum beginning towards the end of February.
Topics addressed will include the first primary occupation of
agriculture, the many years when timber was king, post World War II
manufacturing and the shift to a service-based work force.
What will the future of work in
Cowlitz
County be?
