At 1:00 p.m., gather with us for a special presentation marking this milestone anniversary and honoring the volunteers and community members who have worked tirelessly to preserve the Machine Shop’s legacy.
Food will be available from the local Boy Scout Troop.
This free celebration is open to all. Come be part of the story—and help us honor the people who keep history alive!
