The history center invites the public to come celebrate Charlie Bowdish’s birthday with the reopening of the newly refurbished Bowdish Model Railroad & Miniatures Diorama and browse the new exhibits.
This year’s Bowdish Birthday Bash is dedicated to Bill McCracken, who passed away Feb. 8, and all of the many model buildings he built and animations he made for the Bowdish Animated Miniatures Diorama.
