Posted by: The Agnew Family
Today was Doors Open. This is an event that takes place across Canada, maybe even the world. Places of significance (old homes, innovative businesses) open their doors and invite the public in to look around. Walkerton puts this event on every two years. This year the Old Jail (it was closed as an active Jail last fall), B&G (a furniture manufacturer), Victoria Hall, the Clean Water Center, several churches and homes were included in the tour. Ed and I visited the Jail (definitely wouldn't want to live there), had a tour of B&G (fascinating), had a tour of the Clean Water Center, and stopped at a couple of other places. A very good day.

The guide book indicated that photos were not be taken, so we only took photos at the public locations.
(On Monday I talked to one of the women doing the tours at B&G .... they think they had over 600 people visit - twice as many as they were expecting).
