At their August monthly board meeting, the Optimist Club of Darlington presented the Lafayette County Historical & Genealogy Society with a $250 check.  This was the income from the cheese curd stand that was held at the depot museum to raise money for the caboose project.  Pictured L to R: Tammy Kilby,  Lafayette County Historical & Genealogy Society Vice President, Optimist Club Secretary Mary Jane Sturtz, Lafayette County Historical & Genealogy Society member Nancy Winslow and Optimist Treasurer, Tom Daly.
