Join Rossland Museum volunteer Libby Martin and Research Manager Sarah Taekema-Slot on Thursday, April 27 for a meander through history - from Trail to Rossland along the Columbia & Western railgrade.

Using recently digitized Rossland Museum and Discovery Centre collection photos and slides from Jack McDonald and George Coop, Libby and Sarah will share the history of the C&W in our area and what it meant to the community from the 1900s through to today.

The presentation starts at 6 p.m. Coffee, tea, and treats will be available. Please RSVP. Entrance is by donation.
