Grand Bend, ON - We all recognize that this summer is quite different from those we have experienced in the past. Learn more about how local recreation habits have changed over time by joining heritage professionals from across Lambton County as they participate in the digital panel presentation Fun in the Sun: Past Summer Recreation in Sarnia-Lambton on Thursday, August 27, 2020 from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m.

"These breezy, summer stories are told through sharing artifacts and photographs from the museum collections," says Dana Thorne, Curator/Supervisor at Lambton Heritage Museum. "Our last Heritage Sarnia-Lambton panel in May about the Spanish Flu was very popular, and we look forward to exploring more great local content in this follow up presentation."

Speakers include: Dana Thorne, Lambton Heritage Museum; Nicole Aszalos, Lambton County Archives; David McLean, Forest Museum; Kailyn Shepley, Sombra Museum; Laurie Mason, Moore Museum; and Glenn Stott, Arkona Lions Museum.
