Huronia Museum Heritage Dinner

The Board of Directors for Huronia Museum is once again holding Our Annual Heritage Dinner. This year the Dinner is hosted at the Midland Legion and catered by the Ladies Auxiliary providing a delicious meal, with raffles, door prizes, a silent auction, and fascinating local people to meet and talk to about local heritage activities and projects.

This year we have invited William Northcott and William Smith to make a presentation about the release of their new book, Midland on Georgian Bay. Bill & Bill not only share their first name, but also an abiding love for their beautiful community and its History. No doubt they will have interesting stories to tell that you won’t want to miss regarding the preparation of the book and the research that made it so fascinating.
