Come Visit The Brandon History Center

 This week the John (Jack) Anderson family came to visit us at the Brandon History Center.  They contacted us several days in advance and set up an appointment for a visit.  The family and our board members had a marvelous time sharing family, school and Brandon History.  They spent a couple of hours with us and the time just flew by.  The Brandon History Center is usually open on Friday mornings but this does not work well for many.  We are happy to be open at other times for anyone.  Just contact us by e-mail and we will get back to you to set up a time that works for all.
