LARNED -Fire crews are investigating the cause of a fire at the Central States Scout Museum in Larned.

The fire started just after 2:15 p.m. on Friday at the 1400 square foot building, in the 800 Block of Broadway, according to owner, Charles Sherman.

“The building is a total loss,” he said. “It is insured but the contents that date from 1910 are irreplaceable,” he said.

Fire crews from Larned and Great Bend responded to fight the fire.

There were no injuries reported, according to Sherman. “We were fortunate in that way,” said Sherman.
