Dominion Day - Wednesday, July 1
On the 1st of July, 1867, Canada became a self-governing colony within
the British Empire. We offer you the chance to relive the past and

Historical debates, patriotic speeches, cookies and lemonade and
vintage baseball are a few of the activities that will bring the past to
life. Come out and watch a vintage Base Ball Game between the London
Tecumsehs and Thames Centre Oldtimers at 1:00 pm.
