We had a bit of a whoops moment. At the town program we neglected to give the answers to our Magrath Museum Moments. Two of the questions being who is the members of the Dow Rythmers Band and who was Magrath named after. 

The answer to the first question can be found in our "Blast to the Past" section of the website. ( Simply click on the Blast tab above.) The answer to the second question was Charles A Magrath.
