For twenty-four years our organization has never had a fund raiser - so now we would like to ask your help in raising the funds to buy a microfilm reader/printer and the available microfilm reels of newspapers for Cumberland County. We are a registered charitable organization and will issue tax receipts for your donation. Please HELP US REACH OUR GOAL. Please contact our office if you need further details. Donations may be made by cheque, e-transfer to "archives@ccgsns.com" or through Paypal by hitting the Donate Button, above - please add a note to say it is for the microfilm reader/printer. Or drop by the office Thursday - Saturday from 10 AM - 4 PM
Come visit Friday & Saturday afternoon from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
The speaker for this event will be Courtney Mrazek who is the current W.P. Bell Postdoctoral Fellow in the Canadian Studies Department at Mount Allison University. Her topic: "A Matter of Life and Breath: Patient Trends at the Nova Scotia Sanatorium and the Jordan Memorial Sanatorium."
Everyone is welcome.
