Was held Wednesday, November 29, 2023, 2:30 p.m. in the Francis Smith Boardroom, 2nd floor, Amherst Police station, 21 Havelock Street, Amherst, NS.
After a short meeting with all available seats filled and election of officers completed, CCGS members, Gwen King and Janie Oickle editor of Gwen's book, gave a presentation on the soon to be released book, in time for Christmas, called "LORNEVILLE, Cumberland County, Nova Scotia - From Wilderness to Busy Seaside Community".
All attending enjoyed, and much conversation and queries were put forth as to contents of such a publication and availability, which was answered to as gone to the printers and will be for sale soon.
Check the CCGS website and Facebook often for details.
Thank you all for attending and "Happy Holidays".
All meetings open to the public. Come and join us for the
next meeting in 2024. Bring a friend.
