Museum Kaap Skil in Oudeschild is a comprehensive museum dedicated to the maritime history of the island of Texel. It focuses heavily on the island's central role during the 16th to 18th centuries, when the Reede van Texel (Texel Anchorage) off the coast was the largest and most important anchorage in the world, filled daily with ships from the Dutch East India Company (VOC) and others preparing for or returning from world trade. The museum's exhibitions cover a broad range of topics, including underwater archaeology, shipping, fishing, and the local tradition of beachcombing (or jutterij). Its distinctive, award-winning building, designed by Mecanoo, utilizes recycled hardwood from the North Holland Canal for its facade, reflecting the islanders' tradition of using washed-up materials.
The museum houses an impressive collection, with its most celebrated highlights coming from the discovery of the Palmwood Wreck, a 17th-century shipwreck found off the coast. This wreck yielded an array of extraordinarily well-preserved, exclusive treasures, including valuable textiles. The absolute top piece is a nearly intact 17th-century silk dress of "royal allure," along with a wedding dress adorned with silver thread. Beyond these textile finds, the museum showcases a wide selection of other recovered artifacts, such as a gilt silver cup and a luxurious toiletry set, which are exhibited in an intimate, low-lit basement area featuring an enormous 18-meter-long, 4-meter-deep scale model of the Reede van Texel that comes to life with light and sound effects.
In addition to its indoor exhibitions, Museum Kaap Skil features an extensive open-air museum area that transports visitors back to life on Texel a century or more ago. This section includes authentically reconstructed fishermen's cottages, a smithy, and the historic De Traanroeier grain mill. Throughout the year, and especially during holidays, the open-air grounds host live demonstrations of traditional maritime crafts such as net mending, rope making, and fish smoking. This combination of top-tier underwater archaeological finds, a detailed exploration of Texel's Golden Age maritime importance, and an immersive open-air experience makes Kaap Skil a multi-faceted and engaging destination for all ages.
Few members of the Waterbury Foundation have given such dedicated service to the Foundation as Mr. William G. Boies. Mr. Boies served as president of the Foundation from 1970 to 1973, and as vice president from 1968 to 1970. He completed two terms as trustee.
In 1970 Mr. Boies established the Allocations Committee whose members became actively involved in investigating grant proposals and visiting agencies.
After completing his term as president, Mr. Boies continued to serve on the Executive, Allocations and Nominating Committees. He always considered his work for the Foundation a pleasure because "the Foundation is composed of members dedicated to helping the Waterbury area."

For the child - Vienna (Flor Kent)
Dedicated to the British people in deepest gratitude. They saved the lives of 10,000 Jewish and non-Jewish children who were able to escape from persecution by the Nazis to Britain from 1938 to 1939, called the "children's transports". For most children, their journey began at Vienna's Western Railway Station. "One who rescues a human life, rescues the entire world." (Talmud: Sanhedrin)

Ellos salvaron las vidas de 10.000 niños judíos y no judíos que pudieron escapar de la persecución de los nazis a Gran Bretaña desde 1938 hasta 1939, llamado "transporte de los niños". Para la mayoría de los niños, su viaje comenzó en la Estación ferroviaria occidental de Viena. "El que salva una sola vida es como si hubiera salvado a toda la humanidad" (Talmud: Sanedrín)
