2006 — Summer
Going… Going… Gone!
After literally years of speculation, study and discussion, the
Elgin County Museum has finally moved out of the 32 Talbot Street
location to new digs on the fourth floor of the County
Administration building.
July 10 and 11 were busy days around the County Museum as
volunteers and staff worked to load the collection in a series of
moving vans for transfer to the County building and other storage
facilities around the County.
The Executive Committee of our Museum has met with the County
Warden and staff to discuss the possibility of our Museum taking
over the former County museum site 'for a nominal fee'. These
discussions are ongoing, and when and if a deal is struck, the
membership will be advised and asked to give a final 'yea or nay'
to the offer.
