LCA Heritage Walk - pictures - Dalhoozie or Dalhowzie?

The Heritage walk on Dalhousie North was a great success! Close to 100 people attended all four walks given in French and in English. Check out the images above provided courtesy of Elaine Sigler. A big thanks and congratulations to the Heritage Committee co-chairs Nancy Miller-Chenier and Liz MacKenzie as well as both fantastic tour guides Mark Farine and Vincent Bergeron (with guest appearances by Brendan Bowen and the Drouin-Lasalle family). Special thanks to Robert Smythe who provided both moral support and historical context. You can check out Robert's excellent blog on Heritage in Ottawa here.

Below is a quote from co-organizer Liz MacKenzie:

''Nearly 100 people went on the four walks conducted by Vincent and Mark - with a popular vignette presentation by Brendan Bowen. Hundreds of people stopped to talk to the volunteers at the table - we sold T-shirts, books and CDs and signed up 20 people interested in LCA work. The merchants had balloons on every corner - leading people all the way down to Cathcart.  Fred provided space, jazz and a great spirit in the Das Lokal parking lot. BIA provided much appreciated tent, table, chairs and their heritage banner. I can't say enough about the positive response we got about our tour guides - people are looking for more walks!

Thanks to all our volunteers and congratulations to who made the day a great success on North Dalhousie.''

If you are interested in volunteering for the next walk just leave a comment or contact the LCA Heritage Committee. See you at the next walk soon!
