2007 Annual Report As one of the town’s historic buildings, the GAR Hall was open for visitors during the Historical Society’s annual House Tour of June 10, 2007. Following completion of the last minor contractual work of the Hall restoration, dedication was planned for November 14, 2007. The high point was a Historical Society dinner at the Old Derby Academy when the W. Bradford Sprout Award was presented to GAR Hall project personnel. Prior to the dinner, the Hall was open to the public and an interesting program was presented for the audience. As Central Fire Station work commenced, the Hall mezzanine area was prepared for occupancy by Fire Chief Duff, Deputy Olsson and Administrative Assistant Kate Knorr. This was a practical use of the upper floor space while work on the Central Fire Station progressed during the year. Cooperation and coordination among Fire Department, Hall Trustees and Veterans group personnel was excellent during the year. Primary use of the main hall and basement involved veterans’ meetings of the American Legion, V.F.W., Veterans’ Council and Disabled American Veterans. Trustees
