The book launch at Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park on Saturday, May 28 will feature a special presentation entitled “Through a Child’s Eyes:
The Words & Photos of Glenbow Children.” Come on by to see how children viewed Glenbow a hundred years ago. The event will be held in the new Educational Facility at the park.
Shari will be giving another special presentation for Historic Calgary Week (organized by Chinook Country Historical Society) on Tuesday, July 26. This Zoom event is titled “The Unbreakable Porcelain Doll: Digging Up the Hidden History of Girls & Women.” Archaeological discoveries, historical sources, genealogical research and oral histories reveal surprising stories of remarkable females from Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park’s past. Hear tales of trailblazers in aviation, nursing and government. Learn how even working-class kids played vital roles in creating history, and in revealing the past to us. This presentation expands on Shari’s new book, Alberta’s Cornerstone.
I would love to accompany your team on a dig!
Thanks so much for your interest, but I have no excavations planned at the moment.
