Hi everyone!
I have a few upcoming live presentations, two of which are happening within the next week!
Join me this Thursday evening, November 14th, at the Mechanicsville AGM at the new Keith Brown Fieldhouse at Laroche Park for a presentation on the hidden story of the filling in of Lazy Bay (and Nepean Bay along LeBreton Flats) in the 1960s with garbage landfill! Tons of photos and lots of interesting stories and anecdotes! The AGM begins at 7, I should be on just after 8:00.
And on Monday evening, November 18th, I am happy to be a part of the Hintonburg CA's "Hintonburg Histories Evening" at 7:30 at the Hintonburg Community Centre. There are a few different speakers, all of which sound really cool, including the launch of the new Hintonburg history pin app, and a demonstration of some artefacts found on a Hintonburg property! I'll be doing a talk titled "Early Days Hintonburg: The Development of a streetcar suburb to a character-rich neighbourhood" which will also be photo-heavy and tell the story of how Hintonburg came to be! https://hintonburg.com/a-hintonburg-histories-evening/
It's an honour to be asked to present at both of these events, and I'm really looking forward to it! Hope to see you there!
Cheers :)
