The public is getting a sneak peek of the new community’s newest museum.
The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 165 has been undergoing renovations since suffering damage from last year’s flood and decided to use the opportunity to upgrade their front area to display all the artifacts they have available to them.
They’ve officially been recognized by the Organization of Military Museums of Canada becoming northernmost museum of its kind in Alberta.
Due to COVID-19, the public can’t view the many artifacts on display at this time.
Once restrictions start easing, they plan on encouraging residents to view the display area for free and learn more with their museum coordinator, Dale Bendfeld.
For the meantime, Mix News and other organizations across the community were allowed a chance to visit, following all COVID-19 protocols, and take photos to share with the community.
Here’s a few showcasing the region’s newest museum looks like:
