Thanks to a grant from the Young Canada Work’s program, Friends of Fort George has been able to hire two heritage interpreters to host virtual talks regarding the War of 1812, the Battle of Queenston Heights and a history of Brock’s Monument.

The talks last 30 minutes and are adaptable for all age groups.

The cost is $2 per person for a minimum of 10 people per session. Presentations can be booked online or by emailing admin@friendsoffortgeorge.ca or calling 905-468-6621.

The Friends of Fort George also will hold a draw to give free programming to three classrooms.

Interested teachers can enter their class by emailing their name, school, class grade and age of students to admin@friendsoffortgeorge.ca. The deadline to enter is June 16.
