Sutter County Museum — Attraction in Yuba City

It was interesting to see some of the exhibits related to the native americans in the area and history of the agricutural develpment. They have an entire section devoted to Lewis and Clark which is confusing because according to the route Sutter County has nothing to do with the expedition.

I believe Yuba City and Sutter County in general needs to promote more advertising of the museum through local businesses. Perhaps even add even more local military history if they work together with the private military museum right outside the front gate at Beale AFB. The American Legion might be able to get involved too.

It may be a small museum but it also has alot of potential for growth. There is alot of history in this area and its a shame the museum doesn't show it.

They also have exhibits devoted to Americans of Punjabi, Chinese, Japanese, and Hmong descent. A sign stated that a permanent exhibit on Mexican-American culture in Sutter county would open soon. When I walked in a man behind the counter said "Welcome to your museum." I felt...
