It’s always a good time when old friends drop by the Sheridan Historical Museum. Recent visitors have included Sara (Linn) Cochard and her sons and daughter-in-law. They came to see Sara’s pictures when she was a basketball cheerleader for the Sheridan Blackhawks back in  the late 1950s. If you have not seen the Museum’s tribute to Larry Hobbs and his remarkable basketball teams of the 1950s, you should come by and see it. The Museum is open on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 1 to 4 p.m. and is located at 315 S. Main St., Sheridan.
