Changes - Haliburton Echo

By Emily Stonehouse The other day, I was invited to sit in on a presentation to the Rotary Club by historian Steve Hill on the past stories of newspapers across the county. And while this topic may not speak to everyone, for me, it was music to my ears. I have always been a history buff, having worked at both the Haliburton and Minden museums during my upbringing in the area. But the history of the newspapers is more than just a surface story.

The property is owned by Ontario’s Ministry of Transportation (MTO), and has been identified as a provincial rest stop. Created in 1958 by the premier of the time, Leslie M.

Butterflies - Haliburton Echo

By Emily Stonehouse Minden Pride has officially rebranded as Pride in the Highlands. While the organization has long offered programs well beyond the geographical boundaries of Minden, they recognized the need to use a name that more so represents who they have become.
