Welcome to our Twenty-Ninth Year and these great Sherlockian events!
(Click on any event for further, detailed information)
Greetings fellow Curious Collectors,
Jerry and Chrys (The tin Boxes of the CCOBS) have some scheduling news to report. We will be forced to postpone our next event "Traveling Holmes," that was due to take place on Saturday, May 11th at the Travel Town Museum. The park is fully booked because it’s National Train Day and the Sesquicentennial of the Golden Spike commemorating the completion of America's First Transcontinental Railroad. Leave it to us to pick the potentially busiest day the park has seen in many a year. We will reschedule and notify everyone of the new date. Please pass this information along to your CCOBS friends and family not on Facebook.
Keep those Holmes fires burning,
Jerry & Chrys
