Current Projects
During the summer of 2012 we are working on furthering the following projects:
Interactive Map - Take a virtual tour of southwest Manitoba, exploring its history like never before. YOU decide what the map displays. Choose from the available Themes and Categories or use the Time Slider feature to find out what the landscape looked like at any given time in history. More
Layered Map - We have been working on the creation of a layered map since the very beginning. This is essentially a "hard copy" of the Interactive Map feature of the website. We find this map helpful as a part of our travelling display. More
Geocaches - In 2011 we extended our historic geocache tour of southwest Manitoba to include the RM of Edward in the Pierson area. More
Bus Tours - Each summer we hold one-day regional bus tours. These tours offer unique opportunities for members of the public or school groups to get an up-close view of our region's fascinating history. More
Stories - We continue to collect, research, and record heritage stories from southwest Manitoba. Our stories are short, engaging glimpses into the history of our region. People, places, and events spanning hundreds of years come together to paint a vibrant picture of southwest Manitoba as a culturally diverse and historically unique region. More
Vantage Points - We continue to pursue research on a multitude of historical topics for Vantage Points Volume III - look for it in the spring of 2013! More.
