SUMMARY:The Story of George Gibson's Schooner
DESCRIPTION:We welcome The History Guy Dan Buchanan to separate fact from fiction in the case of George Gibson’s Schooner. Secretly built for the War of 1812\, burned by a pirate\, attacked by American spies?! Dan will set the record straight for this piece of local lore from Presqu’ile Bay\, using recent research and his gift for storytelling. He assures us that the truth is always more interesting than the legends! \nNo registration is required\, but local history is a hot topic in Brighton! We recommend arriving early to grab a seat.

SUMMARY:Brighton: One Town\, Two Wars
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a video presentation from the Brighton Digital Archives\, sharing the stories of young people from Brighton who served in the Great War and the Second World War. \nNo registration is required. \nMore from the BDA’s Facebook Page: \n\n“When we found an old family album from the family of Gerald Thompson Mutton in the Bangay Collection\, we were intrigued. The album\, lovingly populated\, chronicled the story of Gerald’s loss as an aircrew member during the Second World War. This inspired us to dig deeper\, as so many members of our community have\, to learn more about the young men and women who were willing to sacrifice everything for their hometown\, for their country\, for freedom around the world. We learned there were so many; we learned we couldn’t tell every story\, but we could share vignettes and hopefully share a sense of that time and those feelings.\n\n\n\n“We will present a 25-minute video and have displays throughout the Brighton Public Library\, honouring those who stepped up to protect their friends\, neighbours\, family\, and people they would never meet in places they had never heard of. We are grateful for the cooperation and support of the Royal Canadian Legion Brighton Branch 100.”
