B.C. Day was Train Day at the Farm Museum in Fort 91原创.
A collection of model trains was operating in the building, while elsewhere, in the woodworking area children could use hand tools; there was a rope making demonstration, Click and Clown were making animal balloons; Aldor Acres brought a few pets to cuddle; and any child (or family together) who completed the museum scavenger hunt went home with a small prize.
Admission is by donation, it runs 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 9131 King Street, in Fort 91原创.
More than 6,000 agricultural artifacts are on display at the volunteer-run museum, everything from small hand tools to heavy vehicles, drawing thousands of tourists from all over the world every year.
It all started in 1953, with the donation of a single high-cut walking hand plow by Bruce Coleman, which launched the campaign to establish an agricultural museum in the Fraser Valley.
It took almost nine years to raise enough funding to build what would be the first of three buildings.
