New in 2008, this one-hour public program features a
diverse series of speakers and presenters on a weekly basis. On Tuesday,
March 18th (08), Society members
John & Margaret Aitken, Fiona Alpaugh, Philip and Sherrie Fisk, and
Scott & Becky Fischer, along with bagpiper Beth Anne Meriweather, and two
of Fiona's grade school-aged students, braved drenching rains to participate
this event. In spite of the weather, the presentation was well attended and well
received and we look forward to a return visit at some future date.

Grapevine Depot, Grapevine, TX
(2009 Event dates to be posted when available.)
On Saturday, March 29th '08, at least a dozen Soceity members (men in their kilts
of course and the ladies in appropriate plaids!) assisted the
Museum of the American Railroad and the
Grapevine Vintage Railroad
bring Thomas the Tank Engine to D/FW for the 6th
consecutive year...and a good time was had by all! Money raised through this
event helps both the museum and the GVRR in their efforts to preserve a portion
of this country's rich railroad history.
(Members wishing to help with this event in 2009 are asked to
send email to
the webmaster.) |
