On Thursday January 5th, 2017 the FHF hosted a talk by Peter Gower regarding Kingston’s 1855 Grand Trunk Outer Station. This site is made up of the original main building (1855), a brick building (1895-98) and breezeway. Badly damaged in a fire and subsequent neglect, there is now a discussion around its fate.
SPEAKING EVENT – Dianne Lake from Sharbot Lake will be presenting her project – ‘150 Years, 150 Women, 150 Stories’, which tells stories about pioneer women in Central Frontenac County. This event will be held at the R.C.H.A. Club building, 193 Ontario Street, 2nd level, at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, November 21, 2017.
