Hello everyone,

Just a reminder about this month’s ACO meeting. Hope you will come out and and join us for a special presentation. Here are the details…

Time: 7pm March 16, 2011

Venue: Heritage Room, 3rd Floor at 10 Carden Street

Topic:  The History of Sleeman House/Manor

Speaker: Troy Bridgeman

Troy is a multi-media journalist who regularly contributes articles, columns, features and video to the Guelph Mercury and the Waterloo Region Record. One of his niches as a journalist has been researching articles on heritage buildings in the city.  This has allowed Troy to pursue his passion for history and meet many historians and notable personalities from Guelph.  Some of Troy’s works include published stories and videos on The Gummer Building, The Albion, Van Gogh’s Ear, the 6167 Locomotive and the Manor.

We look forward to Troy’s presentation, which promises to be an evening full of surprises and a wonderful trip down memory lane. Hope to see you all there!
