History Club Goes to the Depot!
Bears, Buggies and Books, Oh MY!
Last night the History Club had the opportunity to receive a private tour of the Depot and Annex. Natalie and Curt were the most gracious hosts and proved to be excellent tour guides. It was a very exciting night as we discussed plans for a regular meeting night for students to work on real historical projects around the museum and area!
Check out the loads of pictures below!

How many people get to sit in a real buggy?!
