December 2014 President’s
Report
As this report is being prepared, our 2014
holiday season has begun, Black Friday is upon us (for about the fifth day),
it’s turkey sandwich time, and the football games are over for the day. As the
Danbury Railway Museum approaches the end of our twentieth anniversary year, a
slight reflection is probably appropriate. Many of the founding members
continue to volunteer and serve, new member and long serving member volunteers’
participation and participant hours has grown, and projects and project
involvement has resulted in Museum growth and expansions. Bottom line: More,
better, enhanced, bigger, mission achievement and success! While many
entertainment attractions are down on funding, staffing, and support, the DRM
has continued to attract new visitors and provide enhanced volunteer service. The
Officers and Directors of the Danbury Railway Museum wish to take this
opportunity to thank and recognize those volunteers whom have served the Museum
throughout this past year. Our apologies if we have missed acknowledging
anyone.
