Gilchrist Foundation grant will boost site improvements


The Railroad Museum has been selected by Security National Bank to receive a $37,000 grant award from the Gilchrist Foundation of Sioux City. The funds will be used to transform and furnish the sand drying house as an audio visual theater for speaking and lecture events, film festivals, and other multi-media presentations. Funds are also earmarked to furnish and redevelop the oil house and store house foundation areas as an outdoor amphitheater. The funding is from the Gilchrist Foundation, a family-based foundation with a mission to further the philanthropic interests of the Gilchrist family in the arts, wildlife, conservation, public broadcasting, medical care and disasters. Security National Bank serves as trustee for the Gilchrist Foundation.
