Description |
This souvenir booklet highlights the events sponsored by, or attended by, "Bruce 150", as well as the "Explorers of Bruce" who responded to the call to share their thoughts on Bruce County. It begins with a message from the Bruce County 2017 Warden, Warden Mitch Twolan, and includes photographs of the members of County Council. As described in the introductory remarks, "The goal of the 150th planned events was to showcase the "Explorers of Bruce County". To collect these historic and current stories, an outreach trailer and a website were created. Many events and activities were held throughout 2017 to commemorate the 150th celebrations and put us in touch with all kinds of intrepid explorers. By having people share what Bruce County means to them, it has become possible to share their stories so they can be passed from one person or one generation to another. While each story is pretty amazing on its own, when they are shared as a collection, the history of Bruce County becomes even better." Includes ports. |
