1899 Depot gets a spring scrub by Bluffton Cattle Club
MEDIA RELEASE__Sixteen members of the Bluffton Cattle Club provided community service on April 19 by helping the Bluffton Ohio Historical Society (BOHS) get the historic 1899 Depot, 415 N. Spring St., ready for the busy upcoming event season.
While some members spruced up the grounds and flower beds, others gave the Depot’s meeting room and kitchen a good spring scrub. Members then gathered on the Depot’s back deck for an outdoor club meeting.
BOHS thanks the Cattle Club for their service! The Bluffton Cattle Club is an Allen County 4-H group directed by Alan Begg.
The historic 1899 Depot offers an appealing, affordable setting for graduations, reunions, and other special events. Reserve your Spring or Summer date by calling BOHS at 419-405-1833, or for more information, visit BOHS Depot rental.
