The BRS Baseball Museum honors approximately 120 people encompassing a 60-mile radius from Nokomis. These figures receive such honors because of their significant contributions to the game of baseball. Among those are museum namesakes Jim Bottomley, Red Ruffing, and Ray Schalk. All three are members of the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Additionally, the trio has ties to either Nokomis itself or Montgomery County. The museum is open Saturdays from 9 a.m. until noon and other times by appointment. The museum will be open on extended hours on the day of the ceremony, both before and after the event.
