There is Nothing Like a Good Story Teller

The regular meeting of November 2 was held at the Dundas Museum and Historical Society with coffee and snacks provided by Domestique Cafe. Thank you to Allyson for arranging this vocational meeting as we learn more about the businesses and community organizations in our town.

After the usual happy dollars and business items led by Sergeant-at-Arms Kathy, the meeting was turned over to Carolyn Westoby, administrator of the museum. Carolyn is a master story teller and led us through the 1956 opening of the museum to present day through "snap shot stories" of the history of the area from the 1800s onward. She even sang, "Follow the drinking gourd", a song for the underground railroad that helped point to the North Star. After the formal presentation members were free to tour the museum and everyone is encouraged to return with their families to see the latest displays.
