Hi-Yo, Silver! Orion Library to Celebrate Lone Ranger

Fans of the Lone Ranger will have good reason to yell "Hi-yo, Silver! Away!" this month, as the Orion Township Library celebrates the legacy of the iconic TV series, which was remade this year into a film starring Johnny Depp and Armie Hammer.

While Depp and Hammer won't be around for this event, fans can catch a horse demonstration, mask decorating and a screening of two episodes of the classic series at the library from 10 a.m.-noon on July 27.

The celebration is part of Lone Ranger Days, the Orion and Oxford areas' joint celebration of the famous character that began July 1 and runs through the Celebrate Lone Ranger Parade on Aug. 3 in downtown Oxford. Brace Beemer, a former Oxford resident, was the radio voice of the Lone Ranger.
