DEPOT RESTORATION UPDATE  If you haven't driven by the depot lately you are in for a great surprise. The work on the building has been completed and it is absolutely beautiful.  Dave Stuart, project manager for the City of Perris, should be commended on a job well done. At the instructions of the City of Perris, Dave is working on upgrading and enhancing the landscaping around the depot.  The museum salutes the City of Ferris for bringing this historical project to a successful conclusion. The City has truly created an architectural treasure to be proud of.

Thank you City of Perris!
