Mayor Gonzales is pictured above with Councilmembers Yeager and Cortese at the Orchard Supply 75th Anniversary Celebration on Wednesday, March 1, 2006.  The event recognized OSH for being in business 75 years, founded on March 1, 1931 on Basset Street in Downtown San Jose.  OSH has grown to 84 stores throughout the state.  They announced that they would be working with local elementary schools on developing thriving gardens at their schools.  


Mayor Gonzales spoke, "...Hardware stores are magical places...what better place to imagine all of the projects you can do.  I thank the families who are here today that created Orchard for their vision and hard work.  We are very proud to celebrate your history and contributions to our community. I ask my council colleagues to join me in presenting a commendation celebrating your 75 years of success in our community."
