Pickering Museum Village Honours
Volunteers
On February 15, 2007, Pickering Museum
Village and the City of Pickering honoured the 120 volunteers who help
make the museum village come to life. Over 8393 volunteer hours were
spent supporting the PMV's events, programs and artefact and
reproduction maintenance. Volunteer groups at the site assist with
costumed interpretation, reproduction costume creation and
maintenance, heritage gardening, Gas & Steam Barn demonstrations
and maintenance of equipment, theatrical performances, heritage dance
demonstrations, and woodworking.
Mayor Dave Ryan and several members of
Council were in attendance to present recognition pins and awards to
the outstanding donation of time, effort, and knowledge these
individuals have given of themselves over the last year.
Pickering Museum Village honours their volunteers annually at a
Volunteer Appreciation Reception. This year's reception was held at
the West Shore Community Centre.
