Time capsule is in the works. Good idea that is half a year late

BURLINGTON, ON

The Mayor has finally jumped on the 150^th Anniversary bandwagon.

It took more than one nudge to get her to where she is – you can always rely on our Mayor to recognize an opportunity to be at the front of the parade.

She recently said:

In recognition and celebration of our Burlington 150+ anniversary this year, we’re launching a Time Capsule project!

We’re looking for 7 artefacts or objects to include in the time capsule – one item representing each ward and one that reflects our city.

Residents interested in making a suggestion for an item are asked to contact the Mayor’s Office with:

• A detailed description of an artefact/object OR a photo of an artefact/object they own and are willing to donate to the City of Burlington; and
• A line or two on why they feel this artefact/object best represents either the ward they live in OR the city, as a whole.

You can submit your suggestion either by emailing mayor@burlington.ca with subject line “Burlington 150+ Time Capsule”
