Ralph Stone's book, Diary of a First Street Rambler, is also available in the Museum Shoppe. It is the author's story of growing up in multicultural Monessen during World War II, when steel was king! The book retails for $19.95.

Monessen's annual Founders Day celebration will be held at Monessen City Park on Saturday, August 15. Anyone interested in being a vendor during the event can call the Heritage Museum to register at 724-684-8460. Civil War re-enactors will once again camp in the park and showcase a living history lesson of life during the Civil War. Monessen Founder Colonel James M. Schoonmaker was a Medal of Honor recipient for his war service.
