SPEAKER:  Our April speaker will be Phil Clark. Phil is the current President at Heritage Acres.

The event will take place on Thursday, April 23rd, at the Oak Bay Rec Centre, doors opening at 11:30 am.

About the talk:
Phil will summarize the history of Heritage Acres from its inception in the 1960’s to the present day. He will take you on a virtual train ride and a virtual tour of the 30 acre facility and will describe the significance of some of the buildings. He will then talk about some of the more interesting of 30,000 or so artifacts in Saanich Historical Artifacts Society collections.
Phil will discuss the many different ways you can get involved with the activities of this 100% volunteer run organization. He will also cover the planned development and revitalization efforts to ensure the popular community facility is preserved and improved for the benefit of future generations.
