Subject: July update from Boyce depot

The Town of Boyce, Virginia, had its first annual town picnic on July 3rd. I have attached a handout about the historic 1913 N&W depot. A comprehensive history about the station building, its benefactors, and the agent-operators who worked there can be provided as a download upon request.

Keep cool during "Simmer,"
