Museum “station” may be moved to new site next week: Since the sods-turning ceremony on August 13th, good progress has been made for the plans to move the old C.P.R. station to its new site on the Shawville Fair Grounds.

The footings have been poured and four rows of blocks laid for the foundation.

The Museum Committee is meeting tonight to make plans to have the building moved at the earliest opportunity. The Drummond Brothers of Almonte, who are expert building movers, will relocate the station onto the south-west corner of the fair grounds.

Fort Coulonge Majorettes:  At the opening festivities at Fort Coulonge on the weekend, the majorettes staged a dramatic Maypole routine. Each ribbon represented a Pontiac Municipality and those mayors present were invited to snip their own ribbons for the official opening.

The majorettes are trained by Martine Durocher, a student at the Polyvalente Sieur de Coulonge and a member of the Dames Philantropiques, whose mother, Mrs. Lyla Durocher made the majorettes’ costumes.
