Purpose of this event: This year Heritage Museum is celebrating its 25th anniversary. This event is actually a 25th anniversary celebration of the very first multi-corporate project (which occurred at Heritage Museum, by the way) that was ever done in Orange County. We have developed this unique, feel good experience to reintroduce the Museum to the many employees and their families who live and work in Orange County. We hope this special day will bring them back more often to volunteer, to become contributors and to proudly share Orange County's rich history and the people who were its first settlers with their children, their relatives and their neighbors.
