Heritage Days at the Museum!

Celebrate Heritage Days (Monday, August 4th, 2008) by taking a historic walking tour of Peace River and hear engaging stories and humourous folklore about our town. We are offering three different fact and fun filled tours:

"History of the River" - Learn the proud boat and navigation history of the Peace River including stories of the fur traders, explorers, and the glamorous steamer, the D.A Thomas.
Time: 10:30 a.m

"Downtown History" - Learn about the hustle and bustle of historic downtown Peace River and the pioneering businessmen and businesswomen whose legacies live on.
Time: 1:00 p.m

"Historic Hills of Peace River" - Learn the history behind Judah, Brick, Misery, George and Grouard Hills.
Time: 2:30 p.m



Also enter to win a sleek and slim backpack generously donated by the staff of Alberta Sustainable Resource Development.

All tours begin at the Peace River Museum and last between 45 minutes - 1 hour.

Please come prepared for the weather as the tours will go rain or shine (but hopefully shine!). The Museum will also be open during this time with regular hours.
