The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

DAYTON—In an effort to raise needed funds for operations, the Dayton Historical Depot Society has adapted their Evening at the Depot fundraiser this year which complies with the Stay Home, Stay Safe order. This year’s event will consist of an online auction running July 25 - August 1, culminating with a fun Zoom event on the evening of August 1. The Society hopes to raise $40,000 with this event. The auction is open to everyone, buying an event ticket is not required to bid on this year’s items.

While the auction is not open yet, information about the auction and tickets for the Zoom event can be found here: https://event.auctria.com/e472c80d-0ccb-4843-b3fc-5b691eda5cd7

A ticket includes a link to the August 1st “Evening NOT at the Depot” Zoom Event, which begins at 6:00 p.m. The program will be full of surprises, good music, special appearances, door prizes, and the announcement of auction winners. Since the event will not include food and drink this year, a $10 Depot Dollars voucher will be mailed for each ticket purchased. Participating local restaurants and Dumas Station Winery will accept your Depot Dollars as cash, now through December 31.
