Creemore’s Heritage Plaque program, the brainchild of Purple Hills Arts & Heritage Society member Aiken Scherberger and made possible through the work of that organization and a generous donation from Creemore Springs Brewery, will have its grand unveiling at 11 am on Saturday, October 6 at the brewery.
This first phase of the program will see 13 plaques erected throughout Creemore, each commemorating a person or event significant to the history and development of the village. The plaques and their stories cover the entire span of Creemore’s existence, from its pre-history to the present day.
“We hope the plaques will provide an ‘experience,’ a quick hit of village life,” said Scherberger. “Each of these 13 stories provides a little window onto the world that is Creemore.”
All are welcome to attend the ceremony and follow it up with an informative walk around town.
