NOVEMBER GENERAL MEETING Sunday, November 17, 2024, 2 PM Esquimalt Gorge Park Pavilion, 1070 Tillicum Rd Guest Speaker: Nancy Kostyrka, The Chatelaines: More Than Just "The Wife Of..." "A wealth of information is available about the Lieutenant Governors of British Columbia, but the stories of the Chatelaines, especially before and after their time at Government House, have rarely been told. I will be sharing the stories of some of these remarkable women. Their lives span the years from 1812 to the present day. Their birthplaces range from a tea plantation in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) to an antebellum cotton plantation in North Carolina to a North West Company fort on the Rat River in Manitoba to a house on the Gorge just 7 km from Government House. They were all women of their time who rose to the challenges of whatever life handed them. As you will see, they deserve to be known for being more than just 'the wife of…' " Don't miss what will be a fascinating afternoon!

A drop-in, open house style of event with finger foods, tea/coffee/juice, and places to sit or wander into the gardens. Nothing formal, just a chance to mingle, share stories, and remember Peggy. https://lnkd.in/gHeFES6p
