The Douglas Trail was constructed in the fall of 1858. This was the first public works project on the mainland. It was initiated by Governor Douglas to ensure food and freight could be transported to the goldfields inland.
Last chance to get your tickets! Museum members will be at the bank today from 3-6pm selling raffle tickets. All proceeds go toward the new Display and Archive building. The Museum Raffle draw is tommorow and someone will win a handmade Quilt by Peggy Perfitt as well as items by other local artists. Any tickets sold at the Scotiabank will see matching funds from the Scotiabank toward this new building project.
If we mailed you a ticket book - please drop it off at the bank today or tommorow at the museum before the draw at 2pm.
Good luck to all ticket holders and thanks again to Peggy Perfitt, Our Glass Works, Meg Gallup Stonewear and Sharon's Old Fashioned Natural Products for the donation of these beautiful prizes.
