MIDLAND, ONTARIO – Cathy Bayles, Janet Walter
and Paul Lauer from RBC Dominion Securities presented a cheque from the RBC
Foundation to Huronia Museum on Tuesday, April 16, 2019 to support the ongoing
efforts of the museum to bring educational programs to schools in North Simcoe.
This year, Huronia Museum’s educational
programming staff will be going into a local high school to deliver its new “Echoes
of War” program which engages students in commemoration and recognition of our
Veterans’ contribution to war efforts and shaping our nation.
Huronia Museum is mandated to educate the
community about the historical development of North Simcoe communities, marine
heritage, First Nations history and art history. For the past decade, Huronia Museum has been taking
its educational programming to classrooms so that young people can learn about the
history of the region and interact meaningfully with the museum`s expansive
collection
“Huronia Museum is grateful for the
support from the RBC Foundation for this important museum program. Cathy Bayles and her team at RBC Dominion
Securities are long-standing supporters of the museum and its programs. This most recent contribution will help to
ensure that the museum continues to quality educational programming in
classrooms in North Simcoe,” the museum’s Executive Director, Nahanni
Born, noted at the cheque presentation.
Huronia Museum hosted its 9th annual Glow in the Dark Easter Egg Hunt in partnership with the Midland Lions Club on Easter Saturday, April 20th.
Staff and volunteers “hid” over 1000 glow in the dark eggs for eager hunters to find around the black-lit museum. It may look easy but not if you’re looking for a set of five, sequentially-numbered ones! That is a lot of eggs to search!
