    You are cordially invited to celebrate the summer! VAHS is hosting a special event in the 1927 Historic Venice Train Depot's Freight Room on Wednesday, July 9 at noon.  A picnic lunch will be provided (sandwiches, chips, cold drinks, and a surprise dessert) for only $5.00 per person.  Payment will be taken at registration.

    VAHS welcomes former board member Jeana Hilligoss, who will portray Ann Worthington, known as the "First Lady of Venice."  Jeana's talk will feature a PowerPoint presentation highlighting Ann's life before, during, and after her time as the first mayor's wife.  Learn about the history of early Venice as Ann lived it.  In addition, this will be an excellent opportunity to mingle with fellow members, and tour the depot and circus car museum.


    This is an exclusive invitation to members only, however, if you would like to invite a guest, who may be interested in joining VAHS, please do so.  Please respond below to register and order lunch.  Seating is limited, so please act quickly.  This is the first time Ann Worthington has visited the VAHS.  Let us show her a warm welcome!
