The Beaverton Thorah Eldon Historical Society exists for the purpose of preserving the history of the community through research, collecting items of historical interest and for the preservation of municipal and family history.  The Historical Society through the Beaver River Museum is also involved in outreach to the community. The Meeting Place houses a large meeting and display room, archives, curator’s office, collection storage, and a video-editing studio. Annually, about 1000 people enjoy touring the buildings from late May to the end of September.
