Kate Wiltfang inside the teller’s booth from Hebron’s Citizens Bank, now on display inside the Panhandle Depot.
Join us at Hebron’s Stagecoach Inn as we celebrate the 99th birthday of Kate Wiltfang, who was a founding member of the Hebron Historical Society!
For decades, the Hebron Historical Society worked with Hebron Parks and Recreation to preserve and share the community’s history, helping make the Stagecoach Inn and Panhandle Depot beloved landmarks in downtown Hebron. Kate was there from the beginning, and we’re delighted to celebrate her birthday in a place that represents the lasting legacy of her work and that of her fellow Historical Society members.
Stop by Saturday to explore the Stagecoach Inn, help us wish Kate a very happy 99th birthday, and enjoy a complimentary cupcake while supplies last!
Admission is free.
