The Leesburg Area Historical Society will host its fourth annual Judy Mason Memorial Cookout on Friday, June 14 (rain date Saturday, June 15) from 5-8 p.m. at the Leesburg Depot.  

On the menu: freshly grilled hamburger or hot dog, baked beans, slaw, chips, cookie and beverage. Dine at our picnic tables or carry out.  

Donations toward the depot restoration will once again be matched by the Modern Woodmen Fraternal Financial Organization.  

We have been raising funds for several years to modernize the grounds of the depot for events and bring its exterior back to its original appearance. Thanks to ongoing support from the community, we are looking forward to that construction taking place this summer and fall.

Our fundraising efforts are now focused on renovating the interior of the building. Find out more at www.leesburghistory.org.
