Friends of the Depot Board to meet April 8

The board of directors meeting for the Friends of the Orange Depot will be held on Thursday, April 8, 5:30pm at the depot on 11th and Green Avenue.  Plans will be cemented for the annual fundraiser, Depot Day, to be held on the grounds on Saturday, May 1.  We encourage interested volunteers to attend the meeting.

Depot Day activities will include a petting zoo, train rides, pony rides, balloon expert, musical entertainment, plus tours of the inside of the depot to see the changes that have been made in the past year.  Entry is free, with small fees for rides.  A number of Orange area vendors will be set up inside the depot as well.  We are still open for sponsors for this year's event, so if you are interested, please contact Rose at 409-330-1576.  She is also the contact for special events rentals in this very popular historic space.
