Follow Markdale from pre-history times when First Nations tribes roamed here, through settlement days to the arrival of the railway, to unprecedented post-COVID era growth in the mid-2020s. Industry flourishing through the Armstrong Bros., the Moffatts, and Junior Footwear right up to Chapman’s Ice Cream. From a tragic school shooting in 1884 to a memorable Hollywood B film shoot in 1957.

The presentation is followed by a brief Q&A session.
