Friends of the Fenelon Museum
Interested in local history? Want to teach other to appreciate it as much? Looking for an opportunity to meet other to share your passion? Do you have ideas for history-related events in your community? Then you are probably a natural Friend of the Fenelon Museum.
Incorporated as Kawartha Heritage in June 2009, the Friends are a network of people interested in the history of the Kawarthas. The organization was founded in June 2008 to provide opportunities for area residents to take part in promoting, sharing and learning about the history of their region. While regular meetings are held to plan events in conjunction with the Museum, the Friends’ primary aim introduce members to others who similarly value their community and provide opportunities to bring the region’s past to life in less formal contexts.
The Friends encourage their members to bring new dimensions to programming at Maryboro Lodge and provide the support necessary to make these ideas a reality. Cars, family history, sharing old farm stories, remembering the village in days gone by, the Friends have a place for almost anything. Come, share what the area means to you.
Interested in joining? Contact the Friends, drop by or call Maryboro Lodge.
