Hamnett Kirkes Pinhey was a pioneer with a vision! Join us for Discovery Days on July 5, 12 and 19 at Pinhey’s Point. Participants will see how pioneers grew their own food in order to be self-sufficient in the Pioneers and Food Workshop. They will also see and use some old-fashioned hand-held tools in the Power Technology Workshop. In the 3 R’s Workshop, participants will explore how basic everyday waste was reused, recycled and ultimately reduced. Games, crafts and hands-on activities will help participants understand how the needs of pioneers were not so different from our needs in 2009. Cost is $6 per person; $10 for two, $15 per family (max 2 adults). For more information call 613-832-4347 or visit Ottawa.ca/museums.
