Sometimes the best way to tell a story or explain a situation is to let the people who are the story tell it themselves.
FRIENDS OF FREEMAN STATION – 2022 FALL FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN
Thank you to all who have supported the restoration of Freeman Station and the continuing development of the site as a heritage attraction with a railway theme for Burlington.
We hope that you might consider us again when planning your giving for this year.
During 2022, the restoration work continued on our CN caboose, and at our September Open House we were able to open the caboose to the public; it was an instant hit.
Operating costs have increased dramatically and are predicted to go even higher. We can all be proud of what we have achieved so far. This year 2022 marks our tenth anniversary since the station was moved to its permanent home. Relocation and restoration phases have been completed and now we are looking at preserving this valuable historic site for generations to come.
With your contributions, Freeman Station will provide a lasting transportation legacy for Burlington.
Tax receipts will be issued for all gifts of $25 or more received by year end 2022.
There are several ways to donate: 1. Complete an e-transfer directly from your financial institution to the FOFS email address: info@freemanstation.ca; or 2. Go to www.freemanstation.ca. Click on “Pay Pal” or “Canada Helps” at the bottom of the Home page; or 3. Send your cheque by mail to:
