The Rural Retreat Depot Foundation cordially invites you to our Grand
Opening and O Winston Link Celebration on Saturday, October 14.
Registration begins at 9 AM, and the ceremony runs from 10 until Noon. The
Depot will be open for tours and 'meet and greet' in the afternoon,
following the ceremony.

Following the ribbon-cutting we are honored to have as a speaker Mr. Conway
Link. In addition, the steam whistle and church bell sounds of 1957 will be
re-created. It will be opening day for the new Museum at the Depot, with
exhibits including a working telegraph, Dr. Pepper, restored Fairbanks
freight scales, O. Winston Link photography and more.

The ceremony will be held outdoors, so bring a lawn chair if you wish to
sit. Admission is free, and registrants will receive a commemorative ribbon
and program. For more information check our website www,
theruralretreatdepot.com and our Facebook page  theruralretreatdepot

rain or shine.

Rural Retreat is 80 miles west of Roanoke. Take exit 60 off of I-81 and go
south on Blacklick Road/SR680/Main Street for about one mile. The Depot is
downtown Rural Retreat.
