Norwich and District Historical Society's Annual Heritage Dinner and Silent Auction returns! On Saturday, October 19th from 5pm to 9pm, join us for a three-course dinner and an historical presentation by Scott Gillies. Bid on silent auction items donated by businesses throughout the Township, and help Norwich and District Historical Society raise the money that helps us continue to preserve, present, and promote the history of Norwich Township.Scott was the first full-time curator hired by the Norwich & District Historical Society, starting in the spring of 1983. In his time at the Museum, Scott wrote a weekly column for the Norwich Gazette entitled "Route to the Past", was involved in the Norwich Chamber of Commerce, and was secretary of the steering committee for the celebration of the 175th anniversary of Norwich in 1985.
After his time at Norwich, Scott worked with the Bruce County Museum, the Museums of Mississauga, the Norfolk Historical Society and the Town of Ingersoll. He has since retired, but continues to spread knowledge of the history of Oxford County in his "Route to the Past" columns, now for The Woodstock-Ingersoll Echo, doing historical research, conducting walking tours, and giving presentations across the region.
The meal is catered by Chrissy's Catering, Tillsonburg.
Tickets are on sale until Thursday, October 10th at 11:30pm as we will be sending numbers to our caterers the following day.
