Release #24-33
Subject: Community Heritage Series: “A Century of Local Healthcare”

on May 23

Join us for the first of the “Community Heritage Series” for a presentation on the history
of regional health services by Larry Ferguson. It will be held at the Minden Hills Cultural
Centre on Thursday, May 23, 2024 at 5:00 PM.
“A Century of Local Healthcare” begins with the history of Red Cross Outpost Hospitals
in the 1920s, which later evolved into satellites of Peterborough (St. Joseph’s) Hospital.
The story leads to the development of a county-wide corporation providing health
services. Learn about local initiatives, various community challenges and collaborations,
and the roles of individuals in advocating for startups and maintaining essential
components of Haliburton within the provincial health system. Additionally, we will
explore accounts from residents and archival collections from the Cultural Centre.
Admission is by donation. The Minden Hills Cultural Centre is located at 176
Bobcaygeon Road, Minden, Ontario, and is open Tuesday to Saturday, from 10:00 a.m.
to 4:00 p.m. For more information, visit the Cultural Centre's Facebook page:
