I know today's post is a bit later than usual, my PC and I were having a difference of opinion.
Here are some recent donations to the Aldergrove Community Museum & Archives. We have very few artifacts related to the Aldergrove United Church, so this plate is a real treasure. The former United Church building at 29A and 272 is the second oldest building in the our downtown core that's still standing. It was built by members of the community on land donated by Mr. FJ Hart.
Some may wonder why, if we're an Aldergrove museum we accepted this wonderful donation of Langley High School annuals. The answer to that, as many others know - is that before Aldergrove's high school opened in 1958, those who were of high school age attended LHS - and we have been gifted these four annuals with identified photos of all those Aldergrove students. In due time, the annuals will be scanned and the images made available.
We are very grateful for these gifts and will look after them well. If you or a relative is downsizing or decluttering, please consider donating items related to Aldergrove's history to AGHS. Except telephones. We don't need any more telephones. =)
