Ken Weber to address historical societyWell-known local author Ken Weber will be addressing the next meeting of the Caledon East and District Historical Society. It will be Jan. 27, starting at 7:30 p.m. at St. James' Anglican Church in Caledon East. The topic will be An Historical Tour Through the Amazing World of Invention. Prior to the 21st century, inventions were mostly the result of improbable events, sudden spills, chance meetings, bad weather, bad tempers, and there was even a bad case of “the trots.” Everything from the dry cleaning industry to egg cartons to snowmobiles owes much to coincidence. Do accidents and coincidence still happen in these days of the internet and intense R&D? And where does Canada fit in? This presentation will include some of these fascinating invention stories. This will also be the Annual General Meeting of the Society and $15 annual memberships are due.” Everyone is welcome. Students get in free and visitors pay $5 each visit.
