Gifts and Collectibles

The Historical Society has offered a series of nine collectable ornaments that celebrate historic places in Bay County. Many in the series are sold out and only a few of some are still available. However, the most recently issued in 2023 to celebrate the survival of the Downtown Clock is still available. Think of these quality ornaments when you select a birthday, graduation or Christmas gift.
