The Garrett County Historical Society will host a fundraising dinner on Friday, Oct. 28, at the Pleasant Valley Community Center, beginning at 6:30 p.m.
The entertainment for the evening will be provided by local actor John Wilson, who will portray the county namesake and B&O Railroad president, John W. Garrett. Wilson is versed in the events in Garrett’s life, including his numerous accomplishments and his close association with President Abraham Lincoln.
The price of the dinner is $20 per person. Reservations should be called in to the museum as soon as possible, according to Robert Boal, president of the society. The number is 301-334-3226. Persons should call between the hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Boal said the public is invited to attend this event, which is in part a celebration of the opening of the new Garrett County Transportation Museum, located along Liberty Street in Oakland.
