“I like helping in the community as much as I can,” he said.
And as part of the museum board, Noonan said he hopes to “help expand the exposure of the history and fishing museum to the community.” I feel honored,” Noonan said of the opportunity to serve.
Belcher, who has volunteered at the museum in the past and helped on projects such as the restoration of the Primrose and the old Post Office, is more than happy to serve.
The Primrose is one of Destin’s oldest fishing boats, built in 1925 and is on display at the museum.
By working on those projects, Belcher said he “developed an appreciation” for Destin’s efforts to preserve so many artifacts.
