Sad news: Longtime Depot Board president Larry Bean passed away May 17, 2024
 

He kindly designated The Chelsea Depot Assn. for memorial contributions. 

If you wish to make a donation, checks may be mailed to Box 93, Chelsea, MI 48118, or made to PayPal.me/ChelseaDepot with In Memory of Larry Bean in the memo, and we thank you. We'll think of you every time a train goes by, friend. 

Painting the flagpole

Board president and Paint Doctor Todd Gillihan painted the dilapidated flagpole at the depot last fall,

replaced the flag, and we are now able to change it on or own - without calling the local fire department!

We are indebted this summer to our neighbor, Gregg Hartsuff, 

for keeping our grass cut and looking neat around the depot. 

And as always, to our Evening Primrose Garden Club friends for the beautiful plantings!
