The Haynes Electric team of Ingleside, Texas, removed existing
ceiling florescent lights and fixtures. They were replaced with
nineteen 14" modern type LED fixtures. They also added one
round LED recessed fixture in the ceiling title in front of the
bathroom in order to light up that dark area. The team used
tarps to protect items on display and hauled away the old
fixtures and trash. They even swept the floor!
The rooms now have a fresh new look!
The Sinton Texas Historical Museum collects and preserves historical artifacts relating to the early settlers of the Sinton, Texas area and their descendants for the purpose of educating the public and future generations of the local and area history and its part in the story of Texas.
Dream becomes Reality
A small group of Sinton residents were concerned that the history of the community was being lost to the younger generation. In order to preserve the local history the group advocated for a museum and collected artifacts from Sinton and area residents. After some years, a building was finally secured and the museum doors opened to the public in 2011.

Our Collection bin has easy access and is located along North McCall St.
This utility trailer was customized by the students of the Coastal Bend College Welding Department. The trailer was funded by the Port of Corpus Christi.
The museum provides the only collection bin for aluminum cans in the City of Sinton.
The cans are transferred from the collection bin on McCall Street onto the utility trailer. They are then towed by vehicle 5 miles to Camacho's for recycling.
The Bin on Wheels is at times displayed at local and area events to provide individuals opportunity to participate in the first step of recycling.
