Nebraska Orphan Train Reunion 2008
April 26, 2008 Fremont, Nebraska Mark your calendars! Get your reservations in early as the trains filled fast last year! This year's celebration will be in Fremont, NE again aboard as close as we can come to an actual Orphan Train as we can get! We'll have entertainment packed rides both days! Pick the day or days that work best for you for this wonderful living history. Both volumes of By Train They Came will be available by this time!!! Saturday, April 26th at 10am (sit down lunch will follow with entertainment) Sunday, April 27th at 1pm (auction will follow - proceeds divided between Madison County Museum and the National Orphan Train Complex) Last year over $1,000 was earned at the auction to help keep this history alive. Donations of handmade items, gift certificates and cash were most popular. Anything you'd like to donate will be greatly appreciated and will be gift wrapped so that it will not get soiled. Send items or make arrangements with me by April 1st so that they can get onto the sale bill. We're keeping ticket prices low and affordable so that families can attend! Prices for this half day of entertainment are merely: $15 for adults (12 and over) and $10 (ages 3 - 11). Kids under 3 are free. PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS/RELATIVES THAT YOU KNOW WOULD BE INTERESTED. ADVISE THEM TO E-MAIL OR CALL ME TODAY. MY TOLL FREE PHONE IS 1-866-492-9546.
