March Speaker Series: Growing Up In Remarkable Times in Rossland with Lou Corrado & Kim Deane

March 28 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Free

Lou Corrado grew up in Rossland in the later years of the Great Depression and Kim Deane following the Second World War. Having lived here for so long and through such extraordinary times, both have seen the city change and evolve to an extraordinary degree. These two long-time Rosslanders will take us on a fascinating and nostalgic journey through Rossland’s history, touching on the post-war period, the evolution of Cominco, the expansion of the skiing industry, evolving subcultures, and more! If you’re interested in Rossland’s history or you’re another long-time local looking to indulge in a little nostalgia (and maybe learn something new about your backyard!) then this is the event for you.

Our March Speaker Series event is 6 pm Thursday, March 28th at the Rossland Museum & Discovery Centre. Entry is by donation and treats/refreshments will be provided. RSVP here or you can email info @ rosslandmuseum.ca or call 250-362-7722.

We hope to see you there!

This event is supported in part by the Flying Steamshovel.
