The headline reads:
Heritage Burlington invites you to celebrate Burlington’s rich and unique heritage during Heritage Week, Aug. 3–10, 2024.
It’s mid summer and August is approaching and of course that means Heritage work here in Burlington. It is from August 3rd to August 10.
All events are free. Events that require registration will be open for registration from July 15 to 31 or until capacity is reached.
As part of Heritage week Don Thorpe and David Craig will be presenting a Trivia Night at the Burlington Performing Arts Centre on August 8 at 7 PM.
With all new questions, join Don Thorpe, Burlington Historical Society and David Craig, History Pix, for a fun evening of trivia about Burlington’s past and the characters that made it. Be ready to be surprised and definitely to enjoy your time as you decide whether to go with your first answer or your second answer.
Come by yourself or with friends, come for fun or just to learn. Maximum of 160 participants. Registration required.
If you prefer not to register online, send me an email (David Craig – Historypix@iCloud.com ) and I will register for you.
It is a big program – plenty to take part in. The Alton community got missed and large swath of the residential areas either side of Upper Middle Road has somew interesting features. Golf courses got missed – and – there is a story to be told about the building of New Street.
Kudos however for the historical crowd for making this happen.
For those areas that we missed we would love to see some volunteers from those areas to help out next year with planning heritage week. historypix@icloud.com
