Participants enjoyed punch and cookies while taking a step back in time viewing our communities treasured history through artifacts, photos, and preserved buildings including Yerington’s Country Store, East Walker No 9 school house, and the Texaco gas station donated by the Hillygus family.
Participants enjoyed a Spaghetti Feed by ECV (E Clampus Vitus) raising funds for the amazing YFD (Yerington Fire Department) Fire Station No. 3 exhibit.
