DAYTON–The "Evening at the Depot" is back after a one-year hiatus due to COVID-19, and it will be held Saturday, August 7. The benefit supports the Dayton Historical Depot Society, which operates the Depot and Boldman House museums.

We look forward to getting together on the Depot courtyard for our traditional gathering with live and silent auctions, featuring getaway packages and unique items generously donated by our sponsors and supporters.
